IT’S ALL ABOUT THE KIDS

The Rotary Loves Kids Golf Tournament over the past 22 years has raised over Two Million Dollars which has been contributed to Quinte and area children’s care in many ways, such as:

• Easter Seals ~ Camp Merrywood, near Perth, Rotarians are proud supporter of this all-inclusive camp for children. Built in 1948, Camp Merrywood began as a summer camp for kids with polio. The site has 12 buildings including: six camper cabins that accommodate up to 72 children/youth per session, a health hut (camp staff has four (4) registered nurses and two (2) healthcare assistants), dining room and lodge, music and theatre building, nature building, specially adapted swimming pool and so much more.
• Rotary Loves Kids supports The Children’s Foundation’s Reach for Success Youth Awards program. 10% of the proceeds raised through this tournament are directed towards the awards program, which recognizes and honors the achievements of children and youth facing challenging circumstances. Awards are given to youth in one of six categories, including Arts, Sports, Volunteerism, Culture & Heritage, Academics, and Personal Best. Bursaries and Scholarships are awarded to youth pursuing post-secondary school to reduce the financial barrier of Reaching for Success.
• The Rotary Club of Belleville is a proud supporter of the new YMCA Centre for Life. This Centre is a unique partnership of five non-profit organizations under one roof, led by the YMCA, along with Quinte Vitality & Social Support, Volunteer & Information Hastings & Prince Edward, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hastings & Prince Edward Counties and Community Learning Alternatives. These organizations work together to support the ongoing sustainability of all five organizations and providing rehabilitative services, social supports, work experience and health and wellness programs.
