RAGS – AN INTEGRAL PAPRT OF ROTARY

Speaking with John Hewko, Rotary’s General Secretary

Congratulating the RI Women’s group for getting the RI board’s approval for its Rotary Action Group for Menstrual Health and Hygiene (RAG-MHH), RI General Secretary John Hewko said,

“This grant model that we introduced in 2013 is the most important initiative that Rotary has undertaken since the polio initiative that began in the 1980s. In many ways it represents an important component of our organisation’s future, apart from the increased benefits this will have for the beneficiaries.”

Calling RAGs larger and more scalable he pointed out that they serve as great public image boosters locally, regionally, and internationally that in turn, will drive more members and potential donors to TRF.
