Conflict and violence displace millions of people each year. Half of those killed in conflict are children, and 90 percent are civilians.
We refuse to accept conflict as a way of life. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts.

This is the month when we “recognize all useful occupations as worthy of respect” and when we can use our “work as an opportunity to serve society”, remembering the Second Object of Rotary: “High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations, and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an opportunity to serve society”.
Our health is everything. Yet 400 million people in the world can’t afford or don’t have access to basic health care. We believe good health care is everyone’s right.
The Rotary Foundation is changing the world by providing grants for projects and activities around the globe and in your own backyard.
The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives both close to home and around the world.
During the past 100 years, the Foundation has spent $3 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects.
With your help, we can make lives better in your community and around the world.
In the month of October, Rotary will celebrate the Area of Focus "Economic and Community Development". Rotary members train people to become resources for their community, offering networking activities, advice on new business development, and mathematics and financial management training.
Rotary members make amazing things happen, like:
The Rotary Club of New Kingston partnered with the Rotaract Club of New Kingston and the Interact Club of St. Georges College in making it a true Rotary family affair as they embarked in planting thirteen trees in accordance with the Rotary International President's mandate of planting 1.2 million trees.
This hands on project afforded the family the opportunity to bond and fellowship as they executed the project. The Principal of St. Georges College was elated to host the Rotary Club and looks forward to more joint ventures in the future.
Special thanks to the Rotaractors and Interactors who participated and make the project a success. The club also donated white boards to the school.

Members of the Rotary Club of New Kingston making a donation to the New Kingston Police Post
During the last Rotary year, the Rotary Club of New Kingston started a project with the New Kingston Police post where an assessment was done on the needs of the unit.
On September 1, 2017, the club donated two refurbished computers which were acquired from Guardian Life Jamaica Limited. A much needed water dispenser was also donated to the post, as the high volume of traffic handled each day ranks them as one of the busiest on the island.
The scores of civilians who visit the post each week and the officers who service them can be kept hydrated as reports are received and processed.
In our Rotary calendar the month of September is Basic Education and Literacy. The Rotary Foundation supports education through scholarships, donations, and service projects around the world.
Rotary members make amazing things happen, like:
August is Membership Month, which means it’s time to celebrate your Rotary club, your members, and the good you do in your community and around the world.
There are many ways to join in the celebration, but here are a few activities to get you started:
The staff of the Harrison Home for The Aged in Kingston were all smiles as Manager Blondell Caines (third left) accepted a sphygmomanometer from Dr William Aiken (third right), president of the Rotary Club Of New Kingston. The club also donated several batches of disposable supplies to assist with the day-to-day care of the elderly residents of the home.

It's a new year and new team takes over! In the true spirit of continuity, renewal and significance .JPG)
