Higginson Park Marlow
2009 lead charity: “Youth in Marlow”
© Rotary Clubs of Marlow and Marlow Thames
Rotary is one of the world’s largest charitable organisations with over 1.2 million male and female members in 32 countries all willing to make that little bit of extra effort to help their fellow man.
Rotary is probably most famously known internationally for setting up a project
to totally eradicate polio across the globe.
Microsoft President Bill Gates was so impressed with this initiative that his own charity - The Bill and Melissa Gates Foundation - has recently pledged US$350m to Rotary to complete the task.
But it is fun with a purpose.
Besides their own personal development Rotarians in Marlow use their skills and have great fun and satisfaction organising this and other events that raise in excess of £30,000 each year for a wide variety of charitable causes
Rotary clubs exist in most towns across the UK, and here in Marlow, the town’s two clubs - Marlow and Marlow Thames - joined forces 3 years ago to jointly organise the Santa Fun Run.
Members of both clubs enjoy interesting speakers and varied activities at their weekly meetings. A fun and enjoyable programme is critical to the success of a club.
