The Rotary Club of Halifax North West is part of Rotary International, an organization of 1.2 million people in 33,000 Clubs, in over 200 countries around the world. The focus of our Club is support of charitable causes serving youth and the elderly and persons at risk. Locally, our support is focused on the Spryfield area in Halifax, but our Club is also involved in international projects which support the global community. Our main source of funding is a 50/50 draw in Spryfield called Toonies for Change, in which participants register a player number and play a Toonie a week. The project is very well supported by the community in the form of volunteers who devote their time each week in the operation of the project. That said, there is a need for part-time managerial and administrative support.
