Rotary Halifax Harbour has a rich history with Halifax Pride. In 2016, our club made history as the first Rotary club in the world to march in a Pride Parade. As we look forward to 2025, we are excited to celebrate our 10th anniversary of this milestone, reaffirming our commitment to inclusion and community.
The Importance of Inclusion in Rotary
Inclusion is a cornerstone of Rotary's values. Our organization should reflect the diverse communities we support. By embracing people from all backgrounds and walks of life, we strengthen our club and enhance our ability to make a positive impact. Inclusion fosters understanding, broadens perspectives, and creates a more vibrant and dynamic organization.
Rotary is dedicated to building a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change. This mission is only possible when we welcome and celebrate diversity. Our participation in events like Halifax Pride underscores our commitment to these principles.
