Karori Rotary is celebrating 40 years of service
The Rotary Club of Karori is one of 36,754 clubs with 1.2 million members in 220 countries and territories around the world.
Like all Rotarians, we share the ideal epitomised in the Rotary motto, “Service above Self”, and, like Rotarians everywhere, we translate our passions into relevant social causes to change lives and make lasting improvements locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.
Our club was chartered in May 1982. This, our 40th anniversary year, is an opportunity to reflect on, and celebrate, the Club’s many activities and achievements over the years. Here is one such achievement:
1991: Government House Ball
One of the highpoints of the Club’s first 10 years, both a social and fundraising event, was the Club charity ball at Government House in August 1991. A most memorable occasion for those who attended, it raised nearly $5,500 for the Rotary Karori Marsden Community Trust fund.
Applications for membership are always welcome

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
