Fundraising, Grant Making & Foundations Organizations in Winnipeg

The Rotary Club of Winnipeg, founded in 1910, was the first Rotary Club established outside of the United States, thus making Rotary an international movement.   We say that we are the “Club that Made Rotary International”.  Today, Rotary has more than 1.2 million members and 34,000 Clubs around the world. Our motto is: “Service Above Self”.  When asked what we do, I always say, “We are creating leaders for tomorrow”.

The annual Terry Fox Run has become a fall tradition in Canada, with nearly 600 communities, big and small, urban and rural, English and French, fundraising for cancer research. This year, please participate, fundraise, and support someone you love on Sunday, September 15! Nearly 2 in 5 Canadians will face cancer during their lifetime. Terry never gave up, and neither will we. Together, we’re forging a path to a future where cancer is no longer a threat. Becoming a Terry Fox volunteer is an incredibly rewarding experience. Not only will you be sharing Terry’s message of hope, courage and determination, you will be giving back to your community. Our Terry Fox Runs are 100% volunteer run, so we are always on the lookout for passionate Terry Foxers to help us out. Please email us at volunteer@terryfox.org or call 1-888-836-9786
