OUR STORY
We are members of Rotary International, the world's first and greatest service club organization, with more than 1.2 million members in 34,000 clubs worldwide. Rotary club members are volunteers who work locally, regionally, and internationally to combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, provide education and job training, promote peace, and eradicate polio under the motto of "Service Above Self."
This motto applies to all Rotary clubs, and our goal as The Rotary Club of Belmont & Redwood Shores is to fulfill these requirements. Our members are constantly creating innovative projects ranging from community fundraising to rewarding young individuals with scholarships. We aim to expand our services beyond our community with hard work and dedication.
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
I am Chris Ercoli, the newly elected President of the Rotary Club of Belmont & Redwood Shores. It is with great honor and excitement that I assume this office. It is a privilege to serve alongside such dedicated individuals who share an unwavering commitment to SERVICE ABOVE SELF.
This year, our focus will be on expanding our impact through our ongoing meaningful projects that address pressing local needs, such as MELP, the Medical Equipment Loan Program – (www.freemedequip.org), Cars for Vets, HAWES (Health and Aging education Series), providing scholarships to graduating high school Seniors and teacher grants to Belmont educators, to name a few.
Internationally, we support the Rachel Project (providing computer equipment to schools in a variety of countries), Save a Girl Campaign (Providing materials and equipment to sew reusable hygiene items for girls in Africa), Clean water project in South East Asia, and many more.
I am enthusiastic about discovering new opportunities for our club to support, both locally and internationally. The Rotary Club of Belmont & Redwood Shores is the club THAT GETS THINGS DONE! Together, we will continue to be a positive force in our community and beyond, ready to transform our visions into reality.
Not only does this club work hard, It has a lot of fun too! The comradery, and relationships that grow out of working together become lifelong friendships. Celebrations of our successes and honoring others are memorable.
