Over the past 45 years we have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for for charities and local organizations. Please join us and support your community!

We thank you for your past, and ongoing, participation. Your support makes a difference.  Local programs sponsored by the BEL Rotary Club include the festive season “adopt a family” support of the local food banks, Chemong Community Care drop in, and the continued development and enhancement of Rotary Park and stewardship of the Bridgenorth Trail.  We are currently cooperating with Community Care in Ennismore and Lakefield to assemble gift bags of food and supplies for seniors living in difficult circumstances and will be working with the local food banks as part of our food security initiative.  Next spring we will be once again in Rotary Park for our annual clean up and the development of our pollinator garden.  We are actively involved in the eradication of Polio world-wide and continue to support educational opportunities for children across the globe. This is all possible thanks YOU and the support of our community. 

Is your charity of choice not listed? Send an email to our Rotary Club and they will be added.
