If you DON’T know what Rotary Clubs do…
Welcome to the Club!

Rotary Clubs have never done much bragging…so it may surprise you to learn:

  • Rotary International participated in the founding of UNESCO, in the United Nations, and maintains one of only two permanent, non-governmental U.N. seats.   
  • Rotary launched creation of the Easter Seals Society for crippled children.
  • Rotary gives away more educational scholarship money than any non-governmental organization in the world.
  • Rotarians organized and contributed nearly $600,000,000 since 1985 to the PolioPlus Campaign that’s eradicated polio in all but 7 countries and predicts worldwide success by 2005!
  • Rotary is SO well-respected that warring nations have temporarily halted combat, granting Rotary volunteers safe passage to administer polio vaccine to children.
  • Rotary’s worldwide Avoidable Blindness Programs work to treat, cure, and prevent blindness and vision-related problems.

So what do Rockville Rotary members do?
  • Attend a weekly lunch meeting.
  • Enjoy informational or entertaining speakers each week.
  • Pay for meals and annual dues.
  • Participate in the club’s charity social and fund-raising activities.
  • Make a lot of new friends in a variety of professions and occupations.
  • Enjoy seeing fellow members/friends at meetings on a frequent basis.
  • Visit other Rotary Clubs (even in foreign countries) and always feel welcome!

As a member of Rockville Rotary, the investment return on your time, ability, and financial contribution to worthy causes is COMPOUNDED along with those of other Rotary members. The good we do together – in the community and in the world – is enormous.

Please join us for a free lunch (CLICK HERE for time, place or contact info). You’ll be warmly welcomed…without any “sales pitch”. After we get to know each other and agree you should be a member of Rockville Rotary, we’ll be proud to say: Welcome to OUR Club!

*** Who are Rockville Rotarians? We are a diverse group of individuals from many different professional and community backgrounds who volunteer to help in local, regional and international communities through service projects.

Rotary Club of Rockville members join in fundraising efforts to help sponsor many different charitable projects. For example, we raise funds to fight against diseases like Polio, give dictionaries to local elementary schools, buy medical vans for local charitable organizations, give grants to learning centers, provide grants for homeless shelters, give awards and recognition to local high schools and their students. In addition, the Rockville Rotary Club has helped communities in other countries through medical intervention and social programs providing cataract eye surgeries and free eye glasses. This is just an example of the many projects that Rockville Rotarians have helped with.

Rockville Rotarians are volunteers who pay annual dues and a lunch fee to belong to the Rotary Club of Rockville. Guest who visit the Rotary Club of Rockville are given the opportunity to join if they are civic minded individuals who would like to help individuals, families, our local community and communities in other parts of the world through service projects.
