Have Fun While Serving Communities With Aloha

Maui Needs Your Help!

In the aftermath of the recent destruction faced by our communities on Maui; Hawai’i Rotary District 5000 has launched the

Maui Fires Relief Fund.

The fund was established to address the most critical needs and allocate resources effectively. By centralizing our relief efforts into a single fund, Rotary hopes to provide comprehensive and impactful assistance over an extended period of time.

The Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity organization and your donations are tax-deductible. We are an all-Volunteer organization and therefore have no administrative fees. Monies raised go towards relief efforts minus payment processing fees through the banks.

In the Spirit of Aloha, please help!

NEW ROTARY FOUNDATION GRANT
BY MEMBER MARK BARRY, MD:

A VOCATIONAL TRAINING TEAM PROJECT

FOR FUTURE SURGEON LEADERS IN TANZANIA

We train 3 Orthopedic surgeons in the Pediatric sub-specialty who will start their own training site

Initiated by Pediatric Orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Mark Barry from Rotary Club of Kihei-Wailea (RCKW) on Maui. RCKW has partnered with RC Honolulu Sunrise, District 5000 and the Rotary Foundation to support this unique surgeon training initiative at Muhimbili Orthopaedic Institute (MOI) in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. The host is Rotary Club of Oyster Bay in Dar Es Salaam. A Vocational Training Team (VTT) Grant was secured to sequentially bring five Pediatric Orthopedic surgeons from the United States for 3-4 weeks at a time to train 3 top local MOI surgeons in the sub-specialty of Children’s Orthopedics. This is the 5 month final stretch of a 2 year formal fellowship training program at MOI. Upon completion, these will be the only formally trained Pediatric Orthopedic surgeons in Tanzania, a country of 55 million, where half the population is below 18 years of age. The fellows plan to establish the first permanent “Center of Training Excellence” in Pediatric Orthopedics in east, central and southern Africa.
