Role of Community Service
Role of a Community Service Committee:
Community Service is one of the Avenues of Service which encourages Rotarians to offer service to their communities.
Service is the very core of Rotary's character. It promotes Rotary's appeal and visibility in the community, and why Rotary continues to thrive. Rotarians recognize the importance of giving back to the community. As Rotarians we have the ability to find ways to improve the quality of life for those within our communities and to serve the public interest. A wonderful way to invite friends, family and community members to participate in Rotary.
What is Community Service?
- Encouraging and fostering the ideal of service to the personal, business and community life of every Rotarian.
- Opportunities for every Rotarian to exemplify “Service Above Self”.
- A chance to respond to the needs of a local community.
- Opportunity to showcase how Rotarians Are People of Action-always bring a friend-introduce them to Rotary.
Community Service Projects:
- Are relevant to the community
- Serve as a learning experience for Rotarians
- Identify a Rotary club’s role in its community
- Determine how Rotarians can help with the resources at hand
Please contact your Community Service Team to discuss any questions or concerns you may have within this avenue of service and how to ensure support and enthusiasm within your club.
