Rotary District 5060

Congrats to Lake Country Rotary Club for raising about $5,000 during the 2021 Lobster Crawl fundraiser! These donations help fund community projects throughout the area. Clubs throughout the District host unique events like these. Rotary connects people with passion.

Rotary connects people with purpose. Whether your purpose is supporting opportunities for children, feeding the hungry, or supporting world peace, Rotary gives you the tools, resources, and people to help you realize your purpose. How has Rotary helped you make a difference?

At Rotary, we work together to empower youth and promote education. The Shuswap Rotary Club of Salmon Arm has helped fund over a hundred Brain Bikes for School District No. 83 schools. Brain Bikes are stationary bikes that help kids focus before or during learning.

Last year, Rotary Club Osoyoos Masters Golf Pool raised $3,270 for local charities—now that’s what I call a hole in one! Join Rotary today and revel in the fun and creative ways Rotarians support the community. #findyourpurpose #transformingcommunities

Did you know the Northern Pikeminnow is one of the main predators of juvenile salmon and steelhead? That is why the East Wenatchee Rotary Club holds an annual Pikeminnow Derby with the goal to remove at least 3,000 pikeminnows from the Columbia River over a single weekend.

Words matter. If you had to summarize how Rotary has helped you connect with your purpose in just one word, what would it be? Passion? Network? Friendship? Involvement? Share your one word and help others discover why joining Rotary matters. #peoplewithpurose #findyourpurpose

Is your purpose protecting the environment? Then you may be interested in how the Rotary Club of Lake Chelan has developed 9-1-1 Glass Rescue, a community service to the residents of Lake Chelan where discarded glass is recycled and repurposed for public works projects.

As part of our commitment to supporting literacy and education throughout our communities, our clubs often work closely with local schools. Recently, The Okanogan-Omak Rotary Club delivered dictionaries to three local schools. #growarotary

Have you been to the Salmon Arm Daybreak Rotary Club Lobsterfest? The funds raised go toward supporting community projects, like providing housing for families with loved ones currently staying at Kelowna General Hospital, funding local splash parks and supporting food banks.

If a prospective member says they can donate, volunteer, or network on their own and asks why they should join Rotary, how would you respond? Would you share the wide array of causes Rotary supports? What would your answer be? #peoplewithpurpose #buildingrelationships

Did you know there are five different Rotary Clubs in Kamloops, BC? Seven clubs in Kelowna, BC? Four clubs in Wenatchee and three in Ellensburg and Yakima, WA? And there are Rotaract Clubs, Interact Clubs, RotaryNow Clubs throughout District 5060? #transformingcommunities

One of the most common misconceptions about Rotary is that it is an exclusive club for “the good ole boys”—this could not be further from the truth. Rotary brings together people from diverse backgrounds to celebrate differences and form connections based on passions and purpose.

Have you heard about the Rotary Now! Kelowna? It’s a new kind of Rotary club that meets twice a month instead of weekly, with hourly meetings to simply discuss community service projects and fellowship opportunities. Rotary clubs are continually evolving to meet members' needs.

Whether you joined Rotary to network, support your community, or make friends, Rotary has probably helped you find your purpose. Share one way Rotary has impacted your life and connected you with purpose. #transformingcommunities #findyourpurpose #peoplewithpurpose

Rotary offers opportunities to inspire youth to find purpose through service. Kamloops Rotary Youth Exchange helps engage and connect students that may be interested in going on a Youth Exchange while also providing ways for past exchange students to stay in touch.

Rotary projects are dedicated to helping make life better for the marginalized, those who are often ignored. By lifting up those who need help, we make our communities better for everyone. #findyourpurpose #growatrotary #transformingcommunities

We are focused on encouraging far-reaching engagement and involvement—including youth participation. Grandview High School students provide Grandview Rotary Club members a report about happenings at the local high school. #growatrotary #findyourpurpose #buildingrelationships

Rotary connects people to purpose. How has your Rotary Club helped you connect? Share your experience so others can see why Rotary is more than just a gathering—it’s an opportunity to unite and understand your purpose. #findyourpurpose #peoplewithpurpose

At Rotary, we value education and serving our communities in hopes of creating a better future. To help create a comfortable learning environment, the Yakima Rotary Club members came together to build desks for students at Adams Elementary School. #transformingcommunities
