District Rotary Foundation Lunch 2026: Doing Good in the World

Join us for an afternoon of inspiration, fellowship, and celebration at the annual District Rotary Foundation Lunch. This year, we gather to hear how our charity, The Rotary Foundation, continues to make a profound impact globally through its mission of "Doing Good in the World."

This event is a unique opportunity to connect with fellow Rotarians in a relaxed, business casual setting. It is the perfect environment to introduce prospective members to the incredible scope of Rotary’s international reach.
