Message from the President

President Paul CrantWelcome to our community!

Rotary is an international humanitarian organization - we are 1.2 million members who come together to create positive, lasting change in our communities and around the world. An example is the 1985 launch of our PolioPlus program; the first initiative to tackle global Polio eradication. Since that time and with the help of our Partners like the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, we have helped reduce polio cases by 99.9% worldwide.
 
The Rotary Club of Charlottetown, founded in 1917, is the 8th oldest Rotary Club in Canada. We are proud of the local projects we have supported including over 60 years of improving the lives of children and people with challenges under our Easter Seals PEI program, being a major donor to Camp Gencheff, participation in the joint Rotary Soup Kitchen project, as well as the Rotary International Youth Exchange Program. With recent increase in membership and the successful implementation of our newest fund-raising venture, Rotary Radio Bingo, even more great achievements are within our reach as we embark on our 2nd century of service. It has been said that Rotary is quiet men and women doing great things in quiet ways.  I invite you to consider joining this friendship network of almost 100 like-minded business men and women working together to improve the lives of the people in our communities. With you, we can accomplish so much more. 
 
Other unique or notable facts about our Club include: most of our dinner meetings are televised on Eastlink Podium TV; we have our own radio show, Rotary Radio Bingo, on CFCY 95.1FM; as well as a large social media following. In addition, our Club has a distinguished history of entrepreneurship with 9 of our members inducted into the Junior Achievement PEI Business Hall of Fame.
 
The Rotary Club of Charlottetown meets weekly at The Rodd Charlottetown Hotel, 12:15 to 1:30 pm each Monday. We invite local, visiting Rotarians, as well as future Rotarians to our weekly meetings.
 
For more information about Rotary locally, regionally, and around the world, please explore our website and feel free to contact any of the Rotarians featured here.
 
Sincerely, Peter MacDougald

SHAD Program
At the April 23rd meeting we had Kaaren May Phd Director of Industry research at UPEI's School of Sustainable Design Engineering spoke about the SHAD program.  SHAD's mission is to empower exceptional youth to make the world a better place. Every July, about 900 of Canada’s best and brightest come together to experience SHAD’s unique experiential-learning program - rooted in the STEAM disciplines of science, technology, engineering, the arts, and mathematics – while gaining self-confidence, entrepreneurial and workforce skills, internship opportunities, and a network for life. SHAD Fellows are Change Makers for Canada here at home and around the world. There is a chapter of SHAD at UPEI for those willing to get involved.
