The Encinitas Rotary Club was organized in 1939 ~ one of 32,0000 clubs worldwide
that has branches in 168 countries. Rotary has 1.2 million business and professional
members. It is the largest international service organization in the world. Rotarians
follow the motto, “Service Above Self” with service projects in their local
communities and abroad. We address such critical issues as peace, poverty, hunger,
illiteracy, water, disease and environmental concerns
The Rotary Club of Encinitas supports diverse projects ~Building Homes in Mexico
with Project Mercy, furnishing wheelchairs to the people of Malawi and assisting the
Lost Boys of the Sudan and other refugees to adjust to life in the United States.
At the same time, Club Members are actively involved in the local community through
their support of such organizations as the Community Resource Center,
Quail Botanical Gardens, the YMCA. We support the community by honoring a
Teacher of the Month, Peace Officer of the Year and a Local Peace Maker of the Year.
Among the many programs for local youth are soccer fees paid for the
underprivileged, college scholarships for deserving graduates from local high school
and community colleges.
Rotarians throughout the world practice the following “Four Way Test” to assure
high ethical standards in all of their business and professional activities.
The Four Way Test
Of The Things We Think, Say or Do
Is it the Truth
Is it Fair to All Concerned
Will it Build Goodwill and Better Friendships
Will it be Beneficial to All Concerned
Rotary is an enjoyable and satisfying way for everyone to serve their community and
the world. Club members include every race, religion and culture.
This diversity makes being a Rotarian an amazing experience.
