Of the things we think, say or do:

This Week's Program: Rotary Action Groups
Rotary offers an abundance of opportunities to make connections, participate in meaningful service activities, and grow personally and professionally. Rotary Action Groups, with their global network of 37,500 members from more than 150 countries, connect you with like-minded individuals, partners, and service opportunities in the community priorities that you are most passionate about and provide you with learning and leadership opportunities.
Each of Rotary’s 25 action groups has a unique area of concentration, such as economic development, mental health, peace, environment, slavery prevention, and more. These groups are comprised of members who have experience, expertise, and passion in the area of their action group’s subject matter. They use their knowledge, passion, and global network to support Rotary and Rotaract clubs and districts in planning and implementing impactful humanitarian service projects. By bringing expertise, partners, funding resources, and best practices to projects, they help clubs scale up smaller projects to larger, more sustainable international initiatives.
