Rotary Club of Winnetka-Northfield

Rotary Club of Winnetka-Northfield Rotarians see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change - across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.

Join us every Thursday for lunch and an interesting speaker. Opportunities to Make a Difference
Rotary provides a wonderful opportunity for ordinary people to do extraordinary things- like provide new winter coats and dictionaries to children living in exceptional need. These are just a few of the amazing accomplishments initiated by members of our club through our charitable foundation, the Winne

tka-Northfield Rotary Charitable Foundation:

* Annually provide hundreds of Chicago area children living in need with new winter coats.

* Established a highly successful micro-lending program in Uganda.

* Annually pack 100,000 meals in one day with 450 local volunteers for Kids Against Hunger to provide nutritious food to hungry children in Nicaragua.

* Rescued scores of African civil war refugees from a life of slavery.

* Built a library at an orphanage in Viet Nam.

* Provided ShelterBoxes for disaster relief in Haiti and other areas after natural disasters.

* Sponsored dozens of Ambassadorial Scholars for graduate studies overseas.

* Annually provide financial support to local community organizations North Shore. New Members Welcome
We meet weekly for lunch on Thursdays at the Winnetka Community House. At each meeting, members and guests enjoy a catered lunch, opportunities for networking and fellowship and an interesting and informative program. Meetings begin at 12:15 and conclude promptly at 1:30. Guests are always welcome and your first lunch is on us! To Contact us:

Today at lunch we packed and delivered the bags.
Well done, Rotarians and members of our Community Service Corps!

Check out the fantastic items on this year's Operation warm Benefit Party auction! Restaurant gift cards, theater tickets, a lake dinner cruise on lake Michigan, golf at The Glen, a case of very fine cabernet sauvignon. Bidding starts at 40% or retail, or less. No need to attend to win. But of course, we'd be delighted if you came and enjoyed great food, music and dancing with The W.K. Band.
