With the annual change comes a new presidential theme and a new theme logos that accompanies the consistent Rotary branding. The theme however is much more than a logo: it is also gives a sense of direction and emphasis for that year building on previous themes, consistent with the Rotary Action Plan.

We all know that helping others is so much more personally satisfying and rewarding altruism is so much stronger than selfishness. The theme also demonstrates the scale of Rotary’s impact globally aiming not just to improve but change the lives of those served by Rotarians and Rotary.

Rotary members around the globe are serving humanity by providing clean water to underdeveloped communities, promoting peace in conflict areas, and strengthening communities through basic education and literacy and none more important than our work to eradicate polio worldwide.

Presenting the theme, President Shekhar said that “Service is the rent we pay for the space we occupy on this earth”. His initiatives to Grow More to Do More and the membership drive of “Each One Bring One” all align with Rotary’s action plan ands goals.

Tree Planting at Woorim Foreshore

Helping The Community

Our Club is Involved with tree planting at Woorim Beach area as well as Rotary Park in that Area.

The objectives of Donations in Kind are:

To receive requests for aid goods from Rotary Clubs and aid organisations in developing countries.
To receive goods from within Australia, from Rotary Clubs, schools, hospitals and other organisations for distribution to developing countries.
To match the goods received with the requests for aid goods wherever possible and to ensure that all goods are dispatched to appropriate areas of need.
To maintain records, facilitate customs declarations and transport arrangements.
To assist, if requested, Clubs and Districts to dispatch aid goods direct to recipient Rotary Clubs or aid organisations. >
To maintain the quality of the goods dispatched.
To minimise the cost of transport.
To maintain a close liaison with the Rotary Clubs and aid organisations at the receiving end so as to have an appreciation of their requirements and to minimise any problems that they may encounter.

Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for more than 35 years. Our goal of ridding the world of this disease is closer than ever.

Rotary members have contributed more than $2.1 billion and countless volunteer hours to protect nearly 3 billion children in 122 countries from this paralyzing disease. Rotary’s advocacy efforts have played a role in decisions by governments to contribute more than $10 billion to the effort.

Today, polio remains endemic only in Afghanistan and Pakistan. But it’s crucial to continue working to keep other countries polio-free. If all eradication efforts stopped today, within 10 years, polio could paralyze as many as 200,000 children each year.

PEACE POLES

. More than 200,000 have been placed in countries around the world. To celebrate 100 years of Rotary in Australia, it was planned to distribute 100 of these poles in Schools .Bribie Island State School and Bribie C & K Kindy both have a Peace Pole installed

Here at Rotary Club of Bribie Island inc., we see the value in everyone. We want to be a catalyst for positive change, and since our beginnings in 1988, we’ve been driven by the same ideas we initially founded our Non Profit Organization upon:

Together, we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change — across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.
