About Us
Rotary is a global network of 1.4 million neighbours, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.
Solving real problems takes real commitment and vision. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects. From literacy and peace to water and health, we are always working to better our world, and we stay committed to the end.
The Rotary Club of Coomera River has been supporting our community since 2007 in a wide range of areas, in particular those with an education or youth focus.

From our Facebook Page
Having access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene lead to healthier and more successful lives. As Rotary members we don’t just build wells and walk away. Rotary members integrate water, sanitation, and hygiene into education projects. When children learn about disease transmission and practice good hygiene, they miss fewer days of school. Locally and globally we can improve lives.
Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate the dedication of our peace pole yesterday. As our Club President Gareth said, we gathered in a place that already carries deep meaning. Damian Leeding Memorial Park is named in honour of a local police officer who gave his life in the line of duty protecting others. His courage, service and sacrifice are woven into the spirit of our community. A Peace Pole is simple in its form, yet powerful in its message - May Peace Prevail on Earth. To reflect the diversity of our community this peace pole is in 6 languages - English, Yugambeh, Maori, Mandarin, Braille and Auslan. We are now asking our community to let us know what languages they would like to see on our next peace pole. Thank you Mark Boothman MP, Theodore and Naomi Fowler, Division 2, Gold Coast for your support. Everything we do is about community. Rotary District 9640 Peace Poles Oceania
