About Us

Our Club of 100 members is one of 31,000 local Clubs of Rotary International located in 166 countries around the world. We do local community service projects (construct playgrounds and handicap ramps, perform food drives, blood drives, assistance to orphaned children, etc.), provide local scholarships, donate a dictionary to every third grader in Paramus (480 this year) in every school, public and private, and internationally save children's lives by sponsoring 3-5 children per year in third world countries who have life threatening heart conditions (Rotary's Gift-Of-Life program- see the photo on our opening page - we saved this child's life recently...). The child and mother typically are hosted by our members while the child is tested and corrective surgery performed at local hospitals. It is one of the most important and gratifying things we do - give the gift of life to another who, without our help, would likely perish...
