THE ROTARY DIFFERENCE
“Leadership in Service”
We bridge the connections needed to address humanitarian challenges: bringing together the people in need of our help, our partners in service, and our financial well-wishers.
90 YEARS OF SERVICE
Working together in our communities, our humanitarian work has encompassed literacy to peace building; clean water to disease prevention; vocational education to promoting high ethical standards, health to preserving the environment.
A CHARITY YOU CAN TRUST
With NO Rotary administrative costs expensed from your donations, your money goes to work in our projects. This is possible as Rotarians volunteer their own time and themselves pay a membership fee that covers their Club administrative costs. Promotional costs are mostly covered by our Rotarian and corporate sponsors.
