Together, we inspire.

Rotary believes that when we invest in people, we strengthen communities for generations. From education and mentorship to inclusion and opportunity, Rotary members show up, locally and globally, to help individuals reach their full potential.

This is what People of Action looks like: listening, guiding, and building a better future together.

Together, we End Polio.

Because of Rotary’s global commitment, and the dedication of healthcare workers and volunteers around the world, millions of children have been protected from a disease that once paralyzed thousands every day.

Rotary members don’t just talk about change, we take action. From funding vaccines to mobilizing communities, Rotary has helped reduce polio cases by more than 99.9% worldwide.

We’re not finished yet. Until polio is gone everywhere, our work continues.

💙💛 Proud to stand with Rotary and be part of a global movement saving lives, one child at a time.

🌟 Rotary Is Where People of Action Belong 🌟

At Rotary club meetings in communities across the globe, people of action come together to strengthen their connections, to friends, neighbors, and the causes that matter most.

Rotary is about building relationships, serving with purpose, and improving lives, locally and around the world.

💙 Who can join Rotary?
We’re looking for people who want to give back to their communities and be part of something bigger than themselves. Rotary also welcomes Rotaractors, Rotary Peace Fellows, and members of the broader Rotary family who qualify for membership.

☕ How do you become a member?
Rotary clubs accept new members by invitation. To get started, we simply ask a few questions about your interests, passions, and goals. From there, local Rotary leaders help match you with a club that’s the right fit for you.

If you’re curious about Rotary, the best first step is an easy one. Let’s grab a one-on-one coffee. No pressure, just a conversation about service, community, and whether Rotary aligns with what you’re looking for.

🌍 Why Rotary? Because Service Brings Us Together. ☕

At Rotary, we believe in something simple yet powerful: Service Above Self.

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as the foundation of meaningful work, strong relationships, and thriving communities. That commitment comes to life in four key ways:

🔹 Building Relationships That Matter
We believe that getting to know one another creates opportunities to serve, both locally and globally. Rotary is where friendships grow and ideas turn into action.

🔹 Upholding High Ethical Standards
Rotary values integrity in business and professional life. We honor every occupation and believe that meaningful work is an opportunity to positively impact society.

🔹 Serving in All Areas of Life
Rotary encourages members to apply the spirit of service in their personal lives, careers, and communities, creating lasting, positive change close to home.

🔹 Promoting Global Understanding & Peace
As part of a worldwide fellowship of business and professional leaders, Rotarians work together to advance goodwill, collaboration, and peace across borders.

If you’re someone who values connection, purpose, and making a difference, Rotary may be for you.

☕ Interested in learning more?
We’d love to invite you to a one-on-one coffee to share what Rotary is all about, answer your questions, and get to know you.

Meet Sara Mora, a Raytheon Leaders in Education Award finalist in the Middle School Division! She currently teaches 6th - 8th Grade Career Technical Education (Digital Media) at Wrightson Ridge School in the Sahuarita Unified School District #30.

With 15 years of experience, Sara Mora is passionate about empowering students and colleagues through real-world learning and service. As the founding Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Digital Media teacher at Wrightson Ridge, she built the program from the ground up — helping middle schoolers explore careers, plan for their futures, and develop hands-on tech skills. Sara also leads students in producing weekly news videos, managing school social media, and designing the yearbook. Beyond the classroom, she mentors new teachers, leads professional development, and co-facilitates a CommunityShare fellowship for community-engaged learning. Sara’s support extends to statewide and virtual communities, where she builds networks for teachers and facilitates workshops.

Active in her local community, Sara volunteers her tech skills for the Sahuarita Educational Enrichment Foundation, supports her church’s tech and music teams, and teaches at Vacation Bible School each summer. Guided by her motto, “Live to Serve,” Sara’s leadership, generosity, and expertise make a lasting impact on students, colleagues, and her community.

Sara is one of twelve finalists that will be recognized at our upcoming Stand Up 4 Teachers event. Four awardees will be announced at the event and will receive a prize of $2,500, plus an additional $2,500 grant for their district. The remaining finalists will also receive $500 each. All cash prizes are sponsored by Raytheon, an RTX Business.

Please join us in celebrating Sara at Stand Up 4 Teachers, presented by ORielly Chevrolet Tucson & Jim Click Automotive Team, on Thursday, November 6, 2025 at 5:30pm at the TCC Leo Rich Theater!
