Joint venture with Rotary Club of Baracay Island
Tue, Jul 7th 2026 at 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm
An agreement was signed at the Club meeting linking Aireborough Rotary with the Rotary Club of Baracay Island in the Philippines
The agreement signed by Mark Whitfield and Tony Cape proposed two collaborative projects to be jointly delivered. The first will continue the work of donating books aimed at supporting literacy and providing educational resources to those in need. The second will concetrate on mock interviews designed to equip graduating College students with the confidence and skills to enter the workforce. Rotaract Clubs have already been formed by Baracay Island.
With the new Rotary theme for the year being 'Create Lasting Impact' both Clubs have taken an impressive step.
