Welcome to the Rotary Club of Northbrook - where good people do BIG things.

We are volunteers. We are also neighbors, friends, and change-makers who show up - for Northbrook, and for the world. Whether we’re packing lunches for the homeless, supporting global health initiatives or rallying around mental health care and awareness, we bring our whole hearts to everything we do! Acts of kindness - large and small - is what we are about.

Rotary International connects over a million people worldwide who believe in Service Above Self - and we are proud to be Northbrook’s chapter of that movement - through fellowship, leadership and action. 

I am delighted to be the Rotary of Northbrook President for 2026-2027! Selecting Rotary as an avenue for giving back was an easy choice - I’m inspired over and over again by the incredible service our Club has provided.

In the coming year, we have big plans to do some of the same, and more. 

Some of our impact will be seen in the following ways:

• providing monetary grants to over 24 local non-profit organizations
• collecting, packing and distributing food for those struggling with food insecurity
• fundraising to End Polio worldwide
• volunteering within the community 
• offering several scholarships to local graduating seniors
• collecting, sorting and donating thousands of winter coats to those in need
• sponsoring at least 10 high schoolers to attend a leadership weekend retreat
• and so much more…

The world needs us right now! Whether you are a long time member or someone who’s been curious about Rotary - this is your invitation to get involved! Join our commitment to serve our community! Bring your energy, your ideas and your passion for doing good! Let’s do this!

Looking forward to hearing from you!
