We provide services and support for our community and local nonprofits. Many of our members are bilingual Greetings from the Route 78 Rotary Club of North County
Escondido! We are a regional club and our members are from across North County. The Route 78 Rotary Club was chartered in March of 2013. We
are part of Rotary International, a service club association
that includes about 34,000 Rotary clubs, with 1.2 million members in over 200 countries around the world. Our club has a deep commitment to education and "exists to
promote goodwill, respect and better friendships through service and support to the diverse communities of North County" (Mission Statement). Besides education, our club community service focuses on youth development and meeting medical needs. Just a few of the projects we are involved with:
- School Supplies Program
- Thousand Smiles Foundation in Ensenada
- Shelter Box Program—disaster relief
—The North County Food Bank
Our signature fundraising event, The Mariachi Festival, takes place every Spring at the CA Center for the Arts in Escondido. This event celebrates
and showcases traditional Hispanic music and dance in a family
environment. Fundraising proceeds benefit education & health programs for children & youth in North County
Above all, the fellowship aspect of our club is what makes it special. We meet two times at Cocina del Charro San Marcos. We welcome visiting Rotarians and guests to join us for breakfast. We are looking for other leaders and "civic-minded" individuals in San Diego. Our members are 50/50 men/women. If you are motivated to serve our community, we'd like you to join us. Please take the opportunity to come see what the Route 78 Rotary Club is all
about! To learn more about our club, please
