projects which address critical issues that affect local and International communities.
The Agincourt Rotary Club organizes its efforts in four major categories; Club Service, Youth and Vocational Service, Community Service and International Service.
Group 1 - Club Service and Activities

Club of Agincourt. Some of the activities include:

Group 2 - Youth and Vocational Service
The members of this team have the opportunity to contribute not only financially to the youth within our community, but also have the opportunity to guide the next generation through a series of programs.

Group 3 - Community Service and Fundraising
Community Service and Fundraising develops a number of projects that raise funds and promote general community service. These services are aimed at all age groups and include:

Group 4 - International Service
International Service is responsible for funding projects and programs outside of Canada. Each project and program is assessed by the group members and must meet certain criteria before an investment is made. The most important criteria to be met includes the need for assistance.
Currently our biggest project, in cooperation with Rotary International, is the Polio Plus Program. This Rotary initiative is dedicated to eradicating polio by the year 2005. Currently there are only 5 countries in the world that still have cases of Polio.
