Karla Hammond QSMQuota International is an amazing group of intelligent, caring, like-minded women who extend a ‘helping hand’ and a ‘caring heart’ to each other and the people in their community.  Quota also extends a ‘helping hand’ to disadvantaged women and children overseas through the We Share and Club-to-Club Quota International programs.

When I moved to New Zealand from Canada in 1996, I heard about the Quota Club of Whakatane and supported several of their fundraisers.  I was very interested in what Quota did for the community and was pleased to accept an invitation to attend Quota’s change-over dinner in April.  The following years I received an invitation to attend District 37’s Conference and Installation of Officers’ Dinner which was an honour and captured my interest in the clubs.  I met members from clubs all over the North Island and each one was as friendly and welcoming as the next.   When asked to attend a monthly business meeting to find out more, I gladly accepted and joined shortly thereafter!

Happy New Year and Welcome to District 37

Although everyone has started preparing for events being held early in 2010 most members have had a well earned break over Christmas and January. But Quota International of Whakatane and Quota International of Opotiki took advantage of the influx of summer visitors with their popular annual Book fests during late December and January. Proceeds from these will go back to their communities.

Eleven members from District 37, and five partners, attended the South Pacific Area Meeting in Geelong, Victoria. This bi-annual meeting is held over three days so Quotarians from Australia, Fiji and New Zealand can meet together to share service and fundraising ideas to take back to their Clubs and learn more about Quota’s international service programmes. However just as important is the opportunity to renew friendships and meet many new friends from other districts. The New Zealanders then joined with other Quotarians on a post-meeting Melbourne Cup tour which also included further sightseeing in the area surrounding Melbourne. What a week that was to experience.
Photos and more can be seen on the new South Pacific Area website www.quota-spa.org

Pam Ross Governor Quota District 37District 37 Clubs have been amazing with their various events so far this year. The warmth of all clubs was shown by the generous donations to assist others in our Quota world and the service projects in their local communities.

$2,505 was donated to Quota International of Ba to help provide food and medical supplies during the devastating floods in Fiji.

$1,445 was donated to the NZ Red Cross Bushfire Relief Fund after the horrific fires near clubs in Victoria, Australia.
