Decades of international work has helped us define how to successfully carry-through with a project, from inception to completion. We use a ‘Champion’ system whereby a member of the Kitchener-Conestoga Rotary Club must personally represent a cause if it’s going to be considered at the International Aid Fund. This ensures that each project is managed in close alignment with the principles of Rotary. We apply a rigorous application process and work in-step with partners on the ground before a project is approved, and report throughly on a fixed-term timeline using measurable milestones. We take what we do seriously because so much is at stake for those in need of our support.
