Nearly 800 million people live on less than $1.90 a day. Rotary members are passionate about providing sustainable solutions to poverty.

Our members work to strengthen local entrepreneurs and community leaders, particularly women, in impoverished communities.

We provide training and access to well-paying jobs and financial management institutions.

HOW ROTARY MAKES HELP HAPPEN

We create opportunities to help individuals and communities thrive financially and socially.

ADOPT A VILLAGE Rotary members use a multifaceted and coordinated strategy to break the cycle of poverty in extremely impoverished communities.

MICROLOANS Entrepreneurs use microloans to become street vendors, rickshaw drivers, weavers, and tailors.

AGRICULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES Entrepreneurs in rural communities can borrow money to buy livestock or plant crops, or get training in sustainable farming.
