Rotary New Zealand’s humanitarian response mitigates the effects of the severest disasters among communities in the Pacific.
Nationwide
Rotary New Zealand assists its partners in providing support to those living in poverty or affected by natural disasters. Our goal is to create sustainable outcomes - in the form of a hand up rather than a handout.
Join us in our efforts to relieve suffering and poverty in developing countries. Rotary's motto, Service Above Self, is at the heart of everything we do.
Disaster relief. When our Pacific neighbours require immediate assistance following a cyclone, tsunami or earthquake, we distribute Emergency Response Kits. Once the initial response has passed, we help local people rebuild their lives. This might involve repairing homes, schools and hospitals, restoring water supplies and sanitation, and so on.
International development. We assist struggling communities make long-lasting improvements to their economic and social circumstances. We provide funding, project management expertise and experienced mentors to build capacity in affected communities so that they can become self-sufficient.

Cyclones Judy and Kevin, Vanuatu 15 March 2023
Prepositioned supplies are held in Port Vila and Santo, Vanuatu to respond to such events. The aftermath always impacts on water, sanitation, health, food security, and agriculture. We will be supporting partners in country focusing on the vulnerability of the most affected communities. It's never about us, it's always about them.
