Rotary Club Of Tulsa Foundation

Programs: Water well: the goal of the international projects committee is the advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service. Started in 2000 by the rotary club of tulsa, our current, more specific goal is to provide potable water to the poor who live in the barrios of nicaragua. Since its inception, the water well project has been successful in drilling and completing over 487 good water wells, providing potable water to over 110,500 people. Funds to address drilling expenses were raised through the combined efforts of individual donors, gifts from other rotary clubs and a portion of event proceeds.

grant making to numerous tax exempt organizations throughout the tulsa area.

camp enterprise: camp enterprise provides a select group of 100 high school juniors (recruited from over 45 northeastern oklahoma schools) the opportunity to learn team building (ropes), leadership and motivation skills while working within a real business simulation program. Campers meet and interact with some of tulsa's top business leaders and work with international students (rotary youth exchange) assigned to their team. It is a global experience about what makes america's free enterprise system work. Originally developed with the help of the american management association (ama) and the rotary club of tulsa using tools available from junior achievement, camp enterprise is fully funded by sponsors and the club foundation; students are not charged any fees.
