'We provide service to all, and promote integrity, inclusivity, goodwill and peace through our fellowship of business, professional and community leaders.'
 
We were chartered on October 15, 1972 and since that time we have contributed well over $1,000,000 to the community in support of a broad range of services and organizations
We are a club that likes our service to go beyond financial donations and we work together to provide hands on service in a number of ways inc
luding:
  • We cook, serve, and provide the food for a community breakfast on the second Saturday of each month at the Salvation Army New Hope Centre,
  • We sort food at the Loaves and Fishes Warehouse on the 4th Tuesday of each month
  • We provide and serve barbecued food and popcorn at community events such as the Parks and Rec Family Fishing Day and the summers-end Family Fun Day
  • We tend and manage the bar for the annual Dragon Boat Festival beer garden and dinners
We are strong supporters of youth through:
  • Service projects at local schools
  • Rotary Youth Exchange, Rotary Youth Leadership Assemblies, and the local Rotaract and Interact Clubs
  • Annual Scholarships to secondary school graduates and VIU students*
We support various International Service projects as well as polio eradication worldwid

How many Rotarians does it take to number 4,000 golf balls?
On March 9th several club members, appropriately physically distanced and masked, held a work party to number all 4,000 balls needed for the Great Golf Ball Drop. A job well done!
Community Breakfast suspended
Regrettably we've deemed it necessary to suspend the breakfast until such time as in-door dining is possible again.
Back in November and December the Nanaimo North’s Rotary team of volunteers (although fewer because of the pandemic’s and personal restrictions) went in early on the 2nd Saturday of each month and prepared breakfast for the scores of homeless and working poor in our city’s downtown. Instead of serving in the Salvation Army’s dining area, we prepared “to go” boxes which were handed out via their mobile Emergency Services truck.

Food Bank service project continues
Once protocols had been established for volunteers at the Loaves & Fishes Community Food Bank we re-commenced our monthly shifts. We are only allowed up to 8 volunteers, socially distanced and masked, so it's a different experience, but non-the-less rewarding. On Sep 29th, just 5 of us (Bill McK, Barney, Rob, Sheila, and Bill G) worked the shift and managed to sort three pallets of dry goods!
New President installed
On June 17th we were pleased to install our new president for Rotary year 2020-21: Glynis Hayes
