There is something irreplaceable about a child's first week away at summer camp — the first canoe paddle, the first night in a cabin with new friends, the first campfire under a sky full of stars. For families navigating the daily pressures of life in Edmonton's inner city, those experiences can feel financially out of reach. The Rotary Club of Edmonton is proud to help close that gap again this year.

On Wednesday, June 3, 2026, J.J. Tremblay, Chair of the club's Community Service Committee, and President-Elect Jason Bossert met with Renée Chan, Director of External Relations at YWCA Edmonton, to present a Rotary Club donation of $2,000.00 in support of the 2026 Camp Yowochas Summer Camp Subsidy Program. The funds will provide financial assistance to inner-city families, enabling several children to attend camp at no cost to them.

For the eleventh year running, the Rotary Club of Edmonton joined fellow Rotarians from across our district and our partners in Belize to build a playground for children who would otherwise go without. This February's project carried added significance: it was the 50th playground built in Belize by Rotary District 5370, and it was dedicated to the memory of a Belizean friend whose service touched everyone who worked alongside him over the years.

The Rotary Club of Edmonton is pleased to share news of a recent contribution to one of central Edmonton's most important community hubs. On May 25, 2026, J.J. Tremblay, Chair of the club's Community Service Committee, met with Ashton Raeyr, Director of Fund Development and Association Services at the YMCA of Northern Alberta, along with Kristi McNicoll from the YMCA Family Resource Centre team, to present a Rotary Club donation of $6,250.00 in support of the Family Resource Centre's Technology Retrofit.

Each February, downtown Edmonton becomes the focus of a campaign with a deceptively simple goal: collect 1,000 pairs of new underwear for inner-city seniors who too often go without. The Rotary Club of Edmonton was proud to contribute to that effort again this year, joining Operation Friendship Seniors Society (OFSS) and Costco Wholesale to help meet a basic need that is rarely talked about but deeply felt by those it affects.

The Rotary Club of Edmonton gathers nearly every week for lunch at the Chateau Lacombe, and with that rhythm comes an extraordinary parade of guests — leaders, thinkers, and change-makers who share their stories, their expertise, and their perspectives on the issues shaping our city, our province, and our world. Here is a look at the speakers who have joined us so far this year.
