As the holiday season approaches, the Rotary Club of Pickering organized its annual cheque presentation to disburse $20,000 during an event on November 12 at the McEachnie Family Centre, 20 Church Street North, Ajax.
From an organization that provides recovery programs to human trafficking victims, to a charity that helps individuals and families experiencing homelessness and food insecurity, and an organization bringing Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples together for community well-being, 10 organizations received donations in cash and in kind from the Club.

The Rotary Club of Pickering’s August 18 regular club meeting became special with dignitaries from Rotary District 7070 joining in. Among the in-person visitors were District Governor Virginia O’Reilly, District Governor-Elect Niecy Dillon-Tyrovolas, District DEI Chair and Assistant Governor Shauna Moore and Assistant Governor Ferd Longo. It was also a special event, as John Currie, past president and current member of the Club, was presented with this year’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Award by Rotary District 7070. It was in recognition of the work by HIP (Honouring Indigenous Peoples) and Currie, who is the organization’s Executive Director.

Recently our Community Services Director Susan Eberth travelled to Cameroon to volunteer with the Ape Action Africa “AAA” project, something she has been doing since 2005. Our Rotary Club sponsors the AAA education program since we believe in the power of education. Investing in the youth of today secures a better world for tomorrow. During her visit she was able to spend some time with the educational staff and meet some of the students.

Connecting Employers to a Valuable Workforce
The goal of at Rotary at Work is to help people with a disability find meaningful work. That means a real job with real pay, commensurate for the position.
Rotary at Work is a new business to business educational program that takes a fresh look at disability and how this market segment can contribute to the workforce.
