We promote peace & understanding globally by sponsoring or volunteering on projects around the world.

Youth

Rotarians work to empower young people through leadership development programs, encouraging the next generation of leaders.

Rotary Gainsville-Haymarket Connections Family Resource Center servicing Manass

Rotary Gainsville-Haymarket, Manassas & Bull Run Connections Family Resource Center

We focus on building and supporting parent leaders at the neighborhood level. We specifically focus on providing access to programs and resources that support areas like underserved parents and youth, addressing food and clothing insecurity, addressing health/ mental health resources, preventing child abuse and neglect, and investing in families that are helping other families (e.g., a community that cares model).

 

Together, we see a world

where people unite and take action

to create lasting

change across the globe,

in our communities, and in ourselves.

Everyone deserves a place to call home.

Right now, more than 100 million people around the world have lost their homes to disaster and conflict. ShelterBox is working to change this. By providing emergency shelter, tools, and household supplies to displaced families after a disaster, we enable families to begin to rebuild and recover, transforming despair into hope. Our club has supported this Rotary International Disaster Relief partner for many years and is proud to be a SILVER HERO this current Rotary year, which means the club and/or individuals in the club have donated over $3,000. We can become GOLD at $5,000, so CLICK DONATE below toward GOLD!
