Rotary Hutt City is a founding partner with Hutt City Council in the establishment of Innovative Young Minds, a programme encouraging young women to explore science, technology, engineering, mathematics and high-tech manufacturing.
 
IYM, with the support of Rotary Hutt City, other Rotary clubs and commercial sponsors, offers online and residential programmes showcasing study, research and career opportunities available in these fields.
 
Twice a year, Rotary Hutt City organises a quiz and auction evening to raise funds for IYM's work. May's event was yet another enjoyable and highly successful evening, raising over $12,000.
