February 23 is Rotary Day in the City of Yorkton. With 39 members active locally and over 1.2 million members word wide, Rotary Clubs do much when it comes to giving back.
What would it take to change the world? Rotary's 1.2 million members say they believe it starts with a commitment to Service Above Self.
In more than 34,000 clubs worldwide, members are volunteering in communities at home and abroad to support education and job training, provide clean water, combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, and eradicate polio.
Active in Yorkton since 1921, local Rotarians help to provide scholarships, support the Meals on Wheels program, contribute to health care, sponsor student exchange programs and help out local groups/projects that help enhance the lives of others.
In light of that fact, February 23 will be Rotary Day in the City of Yorkton and residents are invited to come out to a special Flag Raising event on that day at City Hall.
People are also invited and encouraged to get involved in the club. To learn more visit: www.rotary.org or contact a local member to attend a meeting.
