Karori Rotary is celebrating 40 years of service

Mark Wood from Rotary Club of Karori

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
If you’d like to learn more about Rotary and the personal satisfaction and growth that comes from serving others, please contact Andrea Skews, E andrea.skews@gmail.com, M 022 073 5548 or Phil Oliver, E phil@praxissoftware.co.nz, M 021 292 7001.

Ever thought about joining Lions International?

Ros from Karori

We are sometimes asked where the money which we raise from the public goes to. Well, below is an answer. What it doesn't cover is how we raise the money - the innovation, the work, the camaraderie. Join us to be a part of it!
