Rotarians from all over Rotary District 7070 embraced women in our District as leaders, as we celebrated the Women’s Day of Rotary District 7070. March 5, 2026, at the Abilities Centre, in Whitby, Ontario Canada, hosted by Rotary District 7070 GovernorNiecy Dillon-Tyrovolas. We celebrated a fundamental truth within Rotary: when we support the agency and leadership of women, we strengthen the foundation of every community. This day is more than a celebration—it is a call to continue our work to remove barriers, elevate women’s voices, and expand access to leadership and service. “Unite for Good” isn’t just a theme — it’s how we move forward. TOGETHER. If you believe in connection, courage, and building something bigger than yourself…This is your room. These are your people. This is your moment. ..... Please read more.....
What Is your Rotary Club doing to focus on Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in March 2026? Clean water and sanitation is a human right. When people, especially children, have access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene, they lead healthier and more successful lives. We don’t just build wells and walk away. Rotary members integrate water, sanitation, and hygiene into education projects. When children learn about disease transmission and practice good hygiene, they miss less school. And they can take those lessons home to their families, expanding our impact.

"What Support Can the Governance Committee Offer to Clubs?”
If you’ve ever wondered:
- What policies should we have in place?
- How do we handle club bylaws?
- Where do we turn for guidance?
This session is for you. Strong governance builds strong clubs — and strong clubs create lasting impact
For more than a century, Rotary and its members have been promoting peace and working to address the underlying causes of conflict in our communities and around the globe – a challenge that’s more important now than ever before.
On May 20, you can learn more in a special on-line presentation “Unite for Peace”– a high-energy hour of stories, music and more, showcasing the peacebuilding work of Rotary through our commitment to create lasting change that enhances international relationships, improves lives and communities, and creates a more peaceful world.
Our very own Joe Solway, Rotarian form Bowmanville , Ontario Canada, and Rotary Zone28's Assistant Public Image Coordinator is producing this show.
You don't need to be a Rotary member to log in.
All are welcome.

The Rotary Peace Centers will accept applications for 2027-28 Rotary Peace Fellowships from 1 February through 15 May 2026. For the first time, candidates will be able to apply to study at Rotary’s next peace center opening at Symbiosis International University in Pune, India. Rotary and Rotaract clubs can work with their district Rotary Foundation chair or Rotary Peace Fellowship subcommittee chair to recruit and recommend experienced peacebuilders for the fellowship programs.
The Rotary Foundation will select up to 170 peace fellows this year to attend one of our nine partner universities with leading programs in peace studies, sustainable development, and conflict prevention and transformation. The fellows will be able to participate in a one-year professional development certificate program to learn advanced peacebuilding skills or earn a master’s degree in a variety of disciplines related to peace and development. The Foundation pays for tuition and fees, housing and meals, round-trip transportation, and internship and field-study expenses. Clubs and districts do not need to provide funding to recommend fellowship candidates. Use this referral form to have information sent to potential candidates.
Since the Rotary Peace Centers program began in 2002, more than 1,800 fellows have graduated from our programs to serve as leaders in governments, humanitarian organizations, educational and research institutions, and international organizations like the United Nations and the World Bank.

My name is Emma-Leigh Johnston. I am a first-year Health Sciences student at Trent University, a member of the Wolf Clan from Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory. I have the privilege of serving as the Earth Captain for the Whitby location of Walk With The Earth 2026. Walk With The Earth is a youth-led national initiative focused on Truth and Reconciliation, youth voice, sustainability, and environmental stewardship. The event raises funds for Honouring Indigenous Peoples (HIP) and their Youth to Youth (Y2Y) program — an immersive land-based learning experience that brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous youth from across Canada. I had the privilege of participating in the Y2Y program in 2025 in Nova Scotia. That experience deeply impacted me. I learned from Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and community leaders, strengthened my connection to culture and land, and built lifelong friendships with youth from across Turtle Island. It is incredibly meaningful to now help create opportunities for other youth to participate in the same transformative experience.
The Whitby Walk With The Earth event will take place on April 18, 2026 along the Whitby waterfront .......
