Raleigh Midtown Rotary is excited to announce our focus on Education and Literacy projects for the current Rotary year.  Our club will be seeking to support projects both locally and internationally in support of this focus.  We’d love to hear from you if you have a passion for education and would be interested in volunteering, supporting our club, or partnering with us on a project.

Why Education?

Worldwide, 67 million children have no access to education, and more than 775 million people over the age of 15 are illiterate. Our members support educational projects that provide technology, teacher training, vocational training teams, student meal programs, and low-cost textbooks to communities. Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.
