TRANSFORMING CLUBS AND COMMUNITIES THROUGH GLOBAL GRANTS
Cadre input leads to greater impact and supports engagement
As a 25-year member of the Rotary Club of Guayaquil Norte, Guayas, Ecuador, Xavier “Xavi” Sanchez Pólit knows the transformative power of Rotary projects. And as a member of The Rotary Foundation Cadre of Technical Advisers, he uses his civil engineering expertise to help other clubs achieve their goals. Cadre members help clubs plan and implement global-grant funded projects, and Xavi has advised members on initiatives such as building primary schools and water filtration systems.
Engaging clubs and building partnerships to expand our impact
Xavi knows some clubs avoid global grants because it’s a long-term process and can seem daunting. But he believes it’s worthwhile. “Committing to multiphase projects keeps your club busy and engaged with Rotary,” he says. Cadre advisers can help clubs navigate the grant application and reporting cycle.
Xavi also emphasizes the benefits of working with local leaders and organizations that have a presence in the community. “They have important knowledge and relationships to make projects successful.”
Adapting to local needs for lasting change
Visiting one water sanitation project involved a six-hour car trip and a three-hour canoe ride, but Xavi found his time with community members rewarding. “It was quickly clear they cared very much for their community and environment,” he says.
Beyond commitment, it’s also important to be flexible. “Most mistakes Rotarians make come from thinking we know what communities need, instead of asking them,” Xavi says. By being receptive to new ideas, asking questions, and responding to community feedback, Rotary members can help their projects have a lasting impact.
Xavi and other Cadre members offer their expertise on these kinds of projects to help clubs advance Rotary’s Action Plan commitment to increasing our impact and our ability to adapt.
