Building Communities

Rotarians are passionate about providing sustainable solutions to poverty

800 million people live on less than $2.00 per day

795 million people do not have enough to eat

60% of the World's hungry are women and children

70% of the World's population live in rural areas and are dependent on agriculture to make a living

Rotarians and our foundation work to strengthen local entrepreneurs and community leaders, particularly women, in impoverished communities. 

Last year The Rotary Foundation spent $9.2 million growing local economies and reducing poverty
