Western Rotaract presented the Rotary Club of London with a certificate of appreciation for mentoring and financially supporting the Juvenile Diabetes Camp for families of children with Type 1 diabetes.
Run by Western University’s Rotaract club, the three-day overnight camp at Pearce Williams Summer Camp and Retreat Facility (March 21–23) offers activities and supportive conversations for children and their families. The Rotaract club, part of the global Rotary network, focuses on volunteerism and community service and organizes the JDC to help families connect. “What the goal for the camp is to essentially have families that come into our camp to really connect with one another,” says Tyler Koo, a third-year medical sciences student and vice-president of the JDC portfolio
