About Us
Posted by Michelle Thomas
The Rotary Club of Cambridge-Isanti is part of Rotary International, a non-profit service club whose motto is 'Service Above Self.'
Rotary is an organization of business and professional leaders united worldwide who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
Rotary club membership represents a cross-section of the community's business and professional men and women. The world's Rotary clubs meet weekly and are nonpolitical, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds.
The main objective of Rotary is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world. Rotarians develop community service projects that address many of today's most critical issues, such as children at risk, poverty and hunger, the environment, illiteracy, and violence. They also support programs for youth, educational opportunities and international exchanges for students, teachers, and other professionals, and vocational and career development.
Through several key fundraisers, our club supports a variety of projects each year including providing dictionaries to every third grade student in both Cambridge and Isanti, offering scholarships, supporting schools, promoting literacy, and donating time and resources to those in need.
