As we step into 2025, we reflect on the incredible work of our community and look forward to another year of making a difference together. For over 78 years, our club has been dedicated to improving the lives of our neighbors, and we’re excited to continue building a brighter future.
Through the Shawnee Mission Rotary Foundation—proudly rated four stars by Charity Navigator—we fund local nonprofits that impact our community.
In 2024, we were thrilled to award over $2,700 to:
✨ Mission Community Food Pantry, serving over 300 families each month since 2020.
✨ Tyler's House supports teens in the area and was recently recognized as Nonprofit of the Year by the NEJC Chamber.
As we begin this new year, we invite you to join us in serving our community. Whether you want to make connections or make a difference, the Shawnee Mission Rotary Club is here for you. Reach out to us at smksrotary@gmail.com to learn more.
Here’s to a year of growth, service, and community!
The Rotary Foundation's fundraising goal is for every Rotarian to donate $100 every year.
Join the Ranks of Excellence: Achieving STAR CLUB Status in Rotary
The Rotary STAR CLUB program has been an incredible success, fostering a spirit of generosity and commitment among Rotarians. Being part of a STAR CLUB is a source of pride for members and a testament to the club's dedication to supporting the Rotary Foundation.
Adding More Stars: An Incredible Sucess
Designation as a STAR CLUB sets the club apart as a leader in supporting the Rotary Foundation. But it doesn’t stop there! Clubs can continue to elevate their status by achieving consistent support year after year:
- 2 STAR CLUB: Achieved after two consecutive years of meeting the goal.
- 3 STAR CLUB: For three years of consistent contributions.
- SUPER STAR CLUB: Earned after 10 years of unwavering dedication.
Why It Matters
Support for the Rotary Foundation fuels projects that transform communities, whether it's eradicating polio, providing clean water, or improving education. Achieving STAR CLUB status reflects a club’s leadership and dedication to the Rotary mission.
