Youth Generation Projects
Like many Rotary Clubs, we are big on youth projects, there are really two types, local and international.
Local youth projects generally promote education and leadership skills within New Zealand whereas international projects work with offshore students in one way or another.
For all these projects we work with local schools and communities.
