A Rotary Global Service Club.
Based in Newport Beach, California, and serving far beyond it. We build lasting peace through projects that restore the planet and strengthen communities, working hand in hand with Rotary clubs around the world.
Local club, worldwide reach
We don’t just support projects overseas. We design them with partner clubs, measure them honestly and share them so any club can take them further.
Partners in peace
Since 2017 we have partnered with the Institute for Economics & Peace, helping Rotary clubs host workshops that teach communities about Positive Peace.
Projects with partner clubs
From Panama to India and Indonesia, our projects are planned and carried out with Rotary clubs on the ground.
Open models
Every project we start is documented and shared, so other clubs can adopt it, adapt it and grow it at home.
4-7-8-17
Developed by club members Steve and Don Bender, the 4-7-8-17 framework checks every project against four standards at once, so it is true, fair and built to last.
Rotary Reefs
In Bocas del Toro, Panama, the club is restoring coral reefs while creating work for local women and Indigenous Ngäbe communities.
- A 110 square meter coral bank installed to grow and outplant coral
- Second place in ESRAG’s #IFixThePlanet challenge, 2021
- Paired with beach and underwater cleanups and fluoride dental care
