About

Welcome to the Rotary Club of Kitchener Grand River.

Rotary’s Motto, “Service Above Self.”

Mission of Our Club

The Kitchener Grand River Rotary Club is a diverse and engaged organization dedicated to supporting children, youth and future leaders locally and internationally by way of living and promoting the ideals of Rotary

Our Values

The members of the Rotary Club of Kitchener Grand River support the principles and goals of Rotary International. In particular, we believe in directing most of our charitable dollars to projects involving youth and children. We believe in planting seeds, or investing in people, helping children and youth with physical, spiritual, educational and mental needs. We believe in supporting projects that are of a preventative or proactive nature and projects that will have a significant impact. We believe that our primary responsibility is to those in our local community. However, we recognize our responsibility to show leadership and to support children in need throughout our province, our country and the world.

We recognize the need to provide continuing support over several years to some projects, whereas other projects will only need immediate support. We also need to be prudent in scheduling our donations throughout the year, so if called upon, we can respond quickly and effectively at any time.
