June is Rotary Fellowships Month a time to celebrate the friendships, connections, and shared passion for service that bring Rotarians together around the world. 💙💛

At the Rotary Club of Key West, fellowship is at the heart of everything we do. From service projects and fundraisers to weekly meetings and community events, the bonds we build make our impact even stronger.

“Don’t adventures ever have an end? I suppose not. Someone else always has to carry on the story.” — J.R.R. Tolkien

Here’s to carrying on the story together through service above self, friendship, and community. 🌴⚙️

What an incredible night for our community and for Hospital Albert Schweitzer in Haiti! 💙

Thanks to the generosity and support of so many, The Rotary Club of Key West successfully completed our raffle fundraiser, raising $10,000 for Hospital Albert Schweitzer in Haiti and the important work they continue to do for families in need.

We also had some very happy local winners along the way! 🎉

Heartfelt thank you to everyone who purchased tickets, donated, volunteered, and supported this amazing cause. Together, we continue to make a difference both locally and internationally. 🌎❤️

Join us this Thursday at The Rotary Club of Key West as we welcome our guest speaker, Ben Hermelin, Executive Director of the Key West Community Sailing Center.

A lifelong Key West resident, Ben first discovered his love for sailing at just six years old through the community sailing program in 2002. Today, he is leading the Sailing Center’s mission to make sailing affordable and accessible for everyone in our community, helping people of all ages experience the joy, confidence, and connection that comes from being on the water.

We look forward to hearing Ben’s inspiring story and learning more about the incredible impact the Sailing Center continues to make in Key West. ⛵️☀️🌊
