The Rotary Club of Westchester welcomes you to the 2020-21 Rotary year!
We pride ourselves in being the most active and friendly Rotary Club in Greater Los Angeles, as evidenced in being selected as the Large Rotary Club of Excellence for 2019-2020, in Rotary District 5280. If you are new to Westchester, we welcome you to a wonderful, close-knit community. The Rotary Club of Westchester is a diverse club with an amazing blend of Young Professionals and veteran Rotarians, all highly committed to serving our community and “Doing Good in the World!”
Our Club was founded in 1950 following World War II. Our community has a very rich and dynamic history, which provides the members of our Club with many opportunities for service. You will find that we are a very active club, completing more than 30 services projects every year. This year we will do a Makeover Project at the Emerson Community Garden. In past years we have completed Makeover Projects at the Westchester Townhouse Youth Center, Safe Places for Youth and the Westchester Senior Center at Westchester Park. We have also supported International Projects in Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, Colombia, Peru, Puerto Rico and this year we will complete projects in Costa Rica. We hope you will consider joining us in our quest to build an even stronger and healthier community and world!
What is Rotary International? “Rotary is the oldest and most sustainable service organization in the world. It provides clean water to those without it, feeds the hungry, battles crippling, debilitating and disfiguring diseases (most specifically polio), and helps people learn to read and write so they can compete in the modern workplace.” Rotary International connects 1.2 million members in more than 160 countries and makes substantial contributions through the Rotary Foundation, to improve the quality of life in our local communities and around the globe.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us. We would love to have you join us for a virtual meeting (during the pandemic) or an in-person meeting when we are able to gather as a whole club again. We meet on Wednesdays at noon at the LAX Crowne Plaza Hotel.
To our friends, we thank you for your generosity, trust, commitment and support. Together, there is nothing we can’t achieve! Believe There is Good in the World! Be the Good!
Yours in Westchester Rotary Club Service,
Tom Johnstone, Proud Club President, 2020-21
