On June 22, Steve Lipishak handed over the President's pin, and the reins of Transcona Rotary Club to Jim Trann.

A heartfelt thank you to Steve for bringing us through COVID, well done!

And a heartfelt welcome to Jim Trann, we look forward to your leadership!

On Thursday, December 8, we were able to give back to three Transcona groups this year thanks to all your financial support! Siloam Mission, Transcona Food bank, and Transcona Railer Express were our gracious recipients.

Judy Leimar, Siloam Mission, accepting a donation to help feed the needy

Susan Sebastian, Transcona Food Bank, accepting donation to help Transcona families in need.

Don Gale, President, Transcona Railer Express accepting donation to their scholarship fund.

Transcona Rotary members will once again be supporting the Salvation Army with our annual Salvation Army Christmas Kettle campaign. Come see us at Kildonan Place Shopping Centre on December 10th from 10:00 to 6:00.

We will be in front of Koya Japan in the Food Court – closest entrance is by Dollarama.

If you have any questions about the campaign, you can find most of your answers here:

Congratulations to all our winners this year!

By purchasing your Grey Cup raffle tickets from one of our members, you helped us support organizations like the Transcona Food Bank and Siloam Mission, just in time for Christmas. We are also able to continue providing a scholarship for the Transcona Railer Express, a junior hockey team playing in the MMJHL.

Thank you for supporting the Rotary Club of Transcona!

On November 10, 2022, we were pleasently surprised with a few guest speakers at our meeting. They presented what ANCOP is and how it has made such a great difference in so many lives.

Our Rotary club donated in the past to this cause - seeing this presentation is a nice tangible way of seeing where some of your donations go and the fruits they can bear.

Our club recently agreed to help out refugees in Ukraine who are fleeing to Poland by donating to ShelterBox Canada, which is part of Rotary International. So far we have enough for 4 shelter boxes ($1,200 each).

ShelterBox is an international disaster relief organization that hand-delivers aid to families devastated by conflict or natural disaster, to give them safe shelter and the tools to rebuild communities.

To help us even further with this campaign, a club member has graciously agreed to match up to $10,000 that our club is able to raise!

If you are interested in donating, please contact Dr. David Marsh (you can email us at info@nulltransconarotary.ca for contact info).

Thank you for your support!

After much hard work, we have released our promotion video explaining who we are, what we do, both locally and globally.
