About Kerikeri Rotary Club

Northland's Kerikeri Rotary Club is a dynamic community-service organisation that connects like-minded people passionate about making a difference. As a Rotary club, we focus on engaging in meaningful community and youth development projects, bringing together members who share a commitment to service and fellowship. Our regular meetings are held every Monday at the Homestead Restaurant on Homestead Road in Kerikeri, starting at 5.45pm for a 6.15pm formal beginning. This structure allows members to network, discuss initiatives, and plan activities that benefit the local area. One of our highlight events is the annual Kerikeri Garden Safari fundraiser, typically taking place in late October, which draws community support and raises funds for essential causes. Through these efforts, the club embodies the Rotary ethos of service above self, contributing to stronger communities in the Far North district.

Location and Community Impact

Established in the heart of Kerikeri, Northland, our club operates from the address at 15 Homestead Road, Kerikeri 0230, New Zealand. This prime location in the Far North district provides easy access for members and visitors alike, situated near the scenic Homestead Restaurant where we gather weekly. Kerikeri, known for its lush surroundings and vibrant community spirit, serves as an ideal base for our projects. The regional context of Northland enhances our work, as we address local needs in youth development and community enhancement amid the area's natural beauty and tight-knit population. By hosting events like the Garden Safari, we not only fundraise but also promote tourism and appreciation of the region's gardens, fostering a sense of pride and unity. Our presence in this corner of New Zealand underscores the role of Rotary clubs in supporting sustainable growth and volunteerism.

Engaging in Service Projects

At the core of the Kerikeri Rotary Club's activities are hands-on community-service initiatives that directly benefit Northland residents. Members collaborate on youth development programmes, providing resources and opportunities for young people to thrive. These projects often stem from discussions during our Monday evening meetings, where ideas are shared and actions are planned. The club's dedication to Rotary principles ensures that every endeavour aligns with global standards of ethical service. Whether through local clean-ups, educational workshops, or support for underprivileged groups, our work strengthens the social fabric of Kerikeri and the wider Far North. Participation in the club offers a rewarding way to contribute, building lasting connections while driving positive change.
