Every
Rotary club, large or small, is engaged in this avenue - Community
Service--the heartbeat of Rotary. Club members see a need in their
community and they act, often in cooperation with local governments and
agencies. For example, they sponsor activities such as traffic safety,
cultural development, community beautification, fire prevention, home
safety, and assistance to the sick, the handicapped, the young, and the
aged. All Community Service projects are tailored to fit local
conditions.
Our Pure Water for the World initiative
is underway. Along with Morristown and 10 other clubs, the Rotary Club
of Madison is committed to helping provide filtering systems for pure,
potable water to impoverished people.
