Our Mission Statement
The Huntley Rotary Club focuses on hands-on projects in the local community that provides members with opportunities for growth in leadership and networking. The group also promotes fellowship events that build lasting friendships. As part of Rotary International, the club is also contributing to End Polio in the world, and working on literacy and clean water projects.

The Huntley Rotary Club past president, Karen Hutchings purchased a tree and donated it for planting at Little Journey Preschool. During Huntley's annual Green & Clean Day, Little Journey was selected as the recipient of the tree donation as part of a new Rotary International initiative.
Congratulations to the Huntley Rotary Club President for 2017-2018. It's going to be a great year!
The annual corn roast fundraiser held at the Lake in the Hills Ribfest was a great success. Funds raised are used toward local and international projects including donations to Grafton Food Pantry, School District 158 and Huntley Library literacy programs, Scholarships, Polio eradication and Shelterbox. Thanks to all who were involved for helping raise over $5,000 toward these great initiatives.

At the club's regular meeting Tuesday, November 8, a good Samaritan overheard us discussing and voting on an advertising expenditure of $195. Before he left the restaurant, he visited our table and gave a member the cash to cover the ad. He left before we were able to thank him.
Thank you, Sir. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
Members of the Huntley Club stood in the bitter wind to ring the bell for the annual Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign. Working in shifts, Rotarians kept the bell ringing from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday, December 16.
Laura Franz, Executive Director of TLS Veterans visited the club to discuss the organization, services they provide to local veterans, and their success at helping veterans get back on their feet. The club donated $100 to TLS Veterans to help in their ongoing mission to provide resources to veterans while they assimilate back into civilian life.
Professional musicians Sofiya Kyrylyuk & Lyudmila Kakisova performed Bach, Brahms and Bartok at a special event to raise $1,000 toward the End Polio Now Campaign.

The Huntley Rotary Club attended Huntley's Annual Fall Fest to showcase a ShelterBox at its booth. Members were able to help visitors understand what a ShelterBox is, and answer questions about Rotary. Special thanks to area Boy Scouts for helping to set up the tent for visitors to see.
At it's October 11th Regular Meeting, Huntley Rotarians again sponsored a ShelterBox for those in need. Typically the ShelterBox units are deployed to areas hit by natural disaster as a way for families to have shelter and dignity while dealing with devastation. Each ShelterBox contains a large, durable tent, cook stove, pots and utensils, bedding and other items to help families cope with the loss of their home.
