About Us

Introducing Frankston North Rotary

Frankston North Rotary is a caring group of people who volunteer and apply their time and talents in providing humanitarian support to local and overseas communities and individuals while also caring for and involving their own members and families.

Members represent a variety of community leaders in business, industry, the arts, government, sports, the military, and religion. Rotary is non-political, non-religious, and open to all cultures, races and creeds.

Members have many opportunities for local and international humanitarian service, addressing health care, hunger, poverty, illiteracy, and the environment. Rotarians experience the fulfilment that comes from giving back to the community.

Service and social interaction are equally important at Frankston North Rotary. Our meetings are fun, and we enjoy many social activities. Service and Project work is also very satisfying!

What Is Rotary?

Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.

There are 33,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. Clubs are nonpolitical, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. As signified by the motto “Service Above Self”, Rotary’s main objective is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world.
