At our upcoming Rotary meeting, we are excited to welcome guest speaker Tineke Ruyter to share the powerful story of the GamPads project.

Stitching together dignity and education, this initiative works to end period poverty for schoolgirls in The Gambia. Instead of handing out disposable products, Tineke and her team run hands-on workshops teaching local women and girls how to stitch their own reusable, washable sanitary pads using local fabrics. This simple skill keeps bright young scholars in the classroom all year round.

To fund these programs, Tineke co-organizes a thrilling bi-annual car challenge that drives vehicles from Zwijndrecht directly through the Sahara Desert to Gambia, where they are auctioned off to support the Scholenplan Gambia Foundation.

Menstruation is entirely natural, and yet there's so much shame and silence around it.

In the Netherlands, 1 in 8 girls and women do not always have access to menstrual products: we can and will do better.

We invite you to be part of this change! Be open to the conversation, look for places where you can donate mestrual products near you (community centers, libraries, sports clubs, etc.). Alternatively, you can donate to Armoede Fonds, whose MUP's project helps 250,000 girls/women in the Netherlands to have access to menstruation hygiene products. (link in bio)

Let's make a difference, together.

Our member, Alp, enjoyed a fantastic dinner meeting with the Antalya Lara Rotary Kulübü Club last night.

Check out the flag exchange from the visit! Proof that no matter where you travel, there’s always a seat at the table for a fellow Rotarian.

For the 4th straight year, we joined Eemhart for NLdoet, rolling up our sleeves at Prinses Margrietstraat in Utrecht to prepare the garden for spring.

Organized by the Oranje Fonds, NLdoet is the Netherlands’ largest volunteer initiative, mobilizing thousands of people and organizations to strengthen their communities through hands-on action.

For us as Rotarians, service above self is not a slogan but a practice; small acts that cultivate connection and care.

Community gardens may seem modest, yet they quietly grow belonging.

If you believe leadership begins with service, follow our journey and join the next day of action.

What if leadership training started before your career even begins?
