Rotarians: Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things

Rotary started with the vision of one man — Paul Harris. The Chicago attorney formed the Rotary Club of Chicago on 23 February 1905, so professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships.

Over time, Rotary’s reach and vision gradually extended to humanitarian service and today, Rotary has become a global network of 1.4 million neighbours, friends, leaders and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.  There are over 46,000 Rotary clubs in the world in over 200 countries.

The Rotary Club of Parksville was formed in 1984 and has carried out many projects in support of the local community and internationally, focusing on food security, education and literacy, homelessness, mental health, the environment, disaster aid, and support for the people of Ukraine affected by the ongoing conflict.

CLUB VISION STATEMENT
Rotary Club of Parksville is a service club of community leaders.

Congratulations 100 Kids For Change! The North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre is also a special cause for Parksville Rotarians. And Janel, who initiated 100 Kids, is one of our Bottle Drop volunteers, along with her grandmother. It takes all of us to make this an amazing community to live.in.Cheque it out! For our first ever cheque presentation, 100 Kids for Change visited the North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre to make the official donation…and to meet all the cool animals too, of course! 🦅

Each year, the Recovery Centre cares for approximately 700 animals, many of which are released back into the wild. For the animals who need regular support from their human caregivers, they get a home at the Recovery Centre, and sometimes (like in the case of the ravens) their wild counterparts even stop by for a visit!

Among their many animal residents, a couple of our favourites were Blizzard, one of the Recovery Centre’s three resident white ravens, and Rae, their resident black bear. 🐻 We even got to watch a live feed of their nine black bear clubs, which they hope to release back into the wild once they are mature!

We would like to give a special thank you to Eden from the NIWRA for sharing about the history and services of the Recovery Centre and touring us around part of the grounds. To all the staff and volunteers at the NIWRA – thank you for taking care of our wild critters and making our community a better place! 🌱
