SWAN ROTARY
Make a difference with Rotary.
Rotary Clubs are where neighbours, friends, and problem solvers share ideas, join leaders, and take action to create lasting change. These are vibrant and respected clubs working for the good of local, national, and international communities. Discussions include community needs and how members can help, catch up with friends and make new ones and connect with leaders from all over the world.
Rotary Clubs bring together like-minded people to provide humanitarian service and to advance goodwill and peace around the world.
