Seattle Rotary Online is a significant marketing opportunity that is available to organizations that wish to help co-sponsor it. Intended as a library where you can just pull a speaker’s presentation off the shelf, Seattle Rotary Online is available to companies or other organizations that wish broader awareness within the club or community.
Sponsorships are available for as little as $500. Please contact Seattle 4 Rotarian, David Endicott by email or at 206-409-3275.
Veterans Day - Stories of Service

Lori Matsukawa from KING5 News will help us celebrate Veteran’s Day by spotlighting members of our club who have contributed to our nation’s defense from World War II through our current conflicts. Representing four of our uniformed services, we will get an up-close and personal experience of their time in uniform as they share their stories of service.

When we joined The Rotary Club of Seattle we all made a commitment to financially support the great work of our club and Rotary International. We try to keep this as simple as possible. Once a year we ask you to make two donations. One is to the Seattle Rotary Service Foundation (SRSF). The other is to The Rotary Foundation (TRF).
HOLIDAY SHOPPING WITH ROTARY BOYS & GIRLS CLUB KIDS
Saturday, December 9
10:00am-3:00pm @ Rotary Boys & Girls Club
201 19th Ave
Each year the Rotary Community Service Committee, in conjunction with the Rotary Boys & Girls Club, creates a wonderful opportunity for all Rotarians (and friends/families) to take a deserving, less-fortunate child on a holiday shopping outing. All of the children are from the Rotary Boys & Girls Club and are selected for the program on the basis of need.
BECU received over 230 nominations this year and have selected 18 finalists, Rotary First Harvest being one of those 18!
From November 3-17 vote for your favorite organization to win the ‘People’s Choice Award.’ Please consider voting for Rotary First Harvest! Rotary First Harvest connects farmers, truckers, volunteers and foodbanks to reduce hunger and food waste. More than half those served by hunger relief programs in Washington are either children or seniors.
Celebrate and support your fellow Rotarians during good and difficult times. Share news of kudos, awards, illness or loss with the Rotary Cares Committee (co-chaired by Fedva Dikmen & Jane Tornatore) — our group is dedicated to supporting and celebrating Seattle #4 members.

SEATTLE ROTARY SERVICE FOUNDATION OPPORTUNITY GRANTS
The Seattle Rotary Service Foundation (SRSF) has announced a new pilot program called “Opportunity Grants”. SRSF is trying to be responsive to the preferences of our member donors and the needs of our community, recognizing that sometimes our usual structure of annual grants does not make funds available when special opportunities, emergencies, and unique needs arise.
All applications must be received by SRSF by December 1, 2017.
For more information on committees, including those that do not have regular meeting times, see the committee page on our website. Meeting times and locations are subject to change, contact committee chairs for more information.
