Welcome to our club
Rotary Club of Woy Woy has been serving the community since 1950 and we are proud of our networks, partners and sponsors that enable us to advance the lives of others. Together, we are helping to change lives locally, nationally and around the world.
What we do
Our club is about Service, Friendship, Fun and Personal Growth. Members have the opportunity to be involved with community service projects at times that fit their work, social and family life, as well as network and socialise with fellow Rotarians and engage with a range of vocational, social and personal learning opportunities. We meet weekly for dinner (on Zoom during COVID-19 lockdown) and guest are always welcome.
Here are some of our club's 2020-21 projects and activities:
'Music Therapy for Dementia' - the provision of headphones for patients in aged care facilities; sponsorship of a PhD candidate researching Dementia care; 'Good Start' to assist disadvantaged students entering high school; 'Share the Dignity' to help women in crisis; 'From Me to You' letterbox project to alleviate isolation, and providing food for those in need. We supported disadvantaged women and girls in Uganda through our Pure Joy Women Empowerment project. While we couldn't hold our annual fundraiser, Opera in the Arboretum due to the pandemic, we produced a video to promote the next event to be held on 12th March 2022. Despite all the challenges in 2020-21, we donated over $37,000 to needy causes.
Who we are
Ethics is a hallmark of Rotary. Rotarians experience personal growth in an organisation that is respected worldwide for its high values and standards and at the same time develops business networking opportunities and builds lifelong friendships. Clubs are non-political, non-religious, and open to all cultures, races and creeds.
