The Rotary
Founded in 1995, the Rotary Club of Mont-Tremblant is dedicated to improving the lives of people in our region and around the world. Our many exciting special events have provided us the opportunity to support such varied projects as the eradication of polio and the expansion of the Montreal Neurological Institute. We recently completed shipment of essential medical supplies to a medical clinic in Malawi, Africa, and we continue to provide meals to the needy school children of Mont-Tremblant with the support of the Tremblant Foundation. We finance Edu-football at our local high school, a program whose purpose is to reduce the school drop-out rate among boys. We also support financially various other causes such as:
- Lunch Box Club: With the help of volunteers and the support of the "Fondation Tremblant" we provide over 10,000 meals annually to students of our local primary and secondary schools.
- Student Exchange: An international student exchange program whereby a local high school student completes a school year in another country and one from abroad does the same thing in Mont-Tremblant
- High school students with learning problems
- Musical instruments for our local high school band
- A score board for our high school football field
- A summer camp for the intellectually and physically handicapped kids.
