Rotary offers opportunities for our members — and those interested in making a difference — to get involved. Through meetings, volunteer projects, and social events, members learn about issues facing our community and communities all over the world, partnering with local, national, and global experts to exchange ideas about potential solutions, draw up action plans to respond, and create lasting, sustainable results. Along with these opportunities to serve, members also are able to regularly network, resulting in lifelong friendships and business connections.

 

For over 100 years, our club has been a proud part of this community and Rotary International, a global network of more than 1.4 million members who believe that great things happen when dedicated minds come together.

 

 

Solving real problems takes effort, commitment, and vision. Rotarians work to protect communities from preventable disease, keep women and children healthy, improve education and economic outcomes, create safe water and sanitation infrastructure, and make the world a more peaceful place.

 

We are working with various partners on many projects, including:

Providing grants to local non-profits  –           10 or more organizations each year

Providing scholarships to graduating high school students

Planting 100 trees in West Chester this year

Helping provide prosthetic limbs to African children

Ringing holiday bells for the Salvation Army

Providing dictionaries to 2nd grade students

Providing school supplies to local students

Partnering with the Gates Foundation, WHO and UNICEF to end polio worldwide

Funding the Hands Across the Sea reading project in the Eastern Caribbean

Volunteering at the Community Warehouse Project

 

 

Becoming a Rotarian enables you to meet community and business leaders, and make an impact locally and around the world. We invite you to visit our club, and find out more about us and the opportunities we offer to get involved. You might also have some great opportunities for service in which our club members can get involved!
