Calverley Rotary Club

Calverley Rotary Club We are 1.2 million neighbours, friends, and community leaders who come together to create positive, lasting change in our communities and around the world.

Our 1.2 million-member organization started with the vision of one man—Paul P. Harris. The Chicago attorney formed one of the world’s first service organizations, the Rotary Club of Chicago, on 23 February 1905 as a place where professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships. Rotary’s name came from the group’s early practice of rotating meetin

gs among the offices of each member. OUR ONGOING COMMITMENT
Rotarians have not only been present for major events in history—we’ve been a part of them. From the beginning, three key traits have remained strong throughout Rotary:

We’re truly international. Only 16 years after being founded, Rotary had clubs on six continents. Today we’re working together from around the globe both digitally and in-person to solve some of our world’s most challenging problems. We persevere in tough times. During WWII, Rotary clubs in Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, and Japan were forced to disband. Despite the risks, many continued to meet informally and following the war’s end, Rotary members joined together to rebuild their clubs and their countries. Our commitment to service is ongoing. We began our fight against polio in 1979 with a project to immunize 6 million children in the Philippines. By 2012, only three countries remain polio-endemic—down from 125 in 1988.

Giving Back to Our Community: Supporting the Calverley Rotary Clothing Collection

​A local friend dropped by our home last week with a bag of pre-loved clothes, asking if they could help others in any way. It reminded us just how much good we can do together when we clear out what we no longer need. 🧥✨

​The Rotary Club of Calverley is turning your unwanted items into direct support for fantastic local causes, and we are collecting donations right up until Wednesday, 2 September.

​What You Can Donate (Any Age or Size):
👕 Clothing & Shoes (Children, Teens & Adults)
👜 Handbags
🛏️ Bedding

​Every single penny raised goes straight into the Rotary Charity Account to support vital community projects—from Calverley in Bloom and Christmas Day lunches to local food banks, youth football kits, and global relief through Rotary ShelterBox.

​If you have items to pass on before 2 September, feel free to drop them off at our home or call us. We'll gladly collect them directly from your doorstep. 🚗🤝

​Let's keep supporting our neighbours and make this collection another brilliant success. ❤️

Take care and Speak soon
