| 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. In more than
160 countries worldwide, approximately 1.2 million
Rotarians belong to more than 30,000 Rotary clubs.
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.
The
Rotary motto is
Service Above Self. |
The
Duquesne - West Mifflin - South Hills Rotary Club was
chartered on April 6, 1953.
We welcome members of our community to join us and help
serve their community! |
