Although known for its support of local charities and organisations
Hucknall Rotary Club is part of an International family of Rotary and within
than movement exists Rotary’s own charity, The Rotary Foundation. A major emphasis within this little-known
charity has been working towards the global eradication of Polio, a project
with which Bill Gates, the World Health Organisation and others have partnered Rotary. The Rotary Foundation also awards
scholarships helping scholars plan to pursue a career in an area which will
make significant impact in worldwide humanitarian effects.
21 year old Monique Mundle, who lives with a foster family
in Kimberley, was the latest visitor to Hucknall Rotary Club. Ms. Mundle is studying “Humanistic
Counselling Practice” at the University of Nottingham and also has a placement at Bluecoat academy
where she runs a student counselling service.
Monique did some volunteering work at an orphanage in South Africa which
impacted her deeply and has inspired her study and career path.
Hucknall Rotary Club will be recommending that Monique is a
suitable candidate for a Rotary Global Scholarship, and if successful, Ms
Mundle hopes to study clinical social work in the USA where she aims to refine
her therapeutic skills merging them into more community impact based work with
the underprivileged.
