The Organisations we support |
The Rotary Club of Calverley has raised more than £30,000 over the last five years thanks to the generosity of local people and its own members. We thought you might like to know where your donations have gone. Before that, let us tell you that 100 per cent of what you donate goes directly to charitable organisations. There are no "admin" charges or highly paid chief executives. We are just a group of business and professional men and women who volunteer their time and expertise to help others locally, nationally and internationally. Have a browse through the list below to see whom we have supported.
