Who we are and what we do:
O
ne of 34,000 Rotary clubs of Rotary International whose mission is to pro-
vide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understand-
ing, goodwill, and peace through its fellowship of business, professional and
community leaders. Our international efforts have provided dental clinics in Brazil,
textbooks for students in Costa Rica, and numerous projects in Cambodia, India,
Uganda and many other countries.
Since 1985 Rotary International has led the private sector to help rid the world of Polio. Thousands of Rotarians have gone
into the field to immunize children, and over one Billion dollars has been contributed by Rotary to help reduce those af-
flicted by this deadly disease from 350,000 cases per year to just over 200 in 2012.
Tualatin Rotary has served Tualatin through hands on projects in community parks and assisting the elderly or needy in
their homes, and providing grants for dental care to those who cannot afford it.
With a focus on the youth of our community, each year we supply dictionaries to third graders, support youth clubs and
organizations, and provide four year college scholarships and mentoring to a high school student.We also host foreign ex-
change students to spend a year at Tualatin High School, and sponsor Tualatin students to learn abroad in countries such
as Mexico,Thailand, France and Argentina!
We welcome new members! The Tualatin Rotary Club meets every Wednesday at 11:45 am at The Tualatin country Club.To
learn more, contact the club, or visit our website at www.tualatinrotary.org, or follow us on Facebook.
Congratulations Tualatin!

proud to be a part of the Tualatin
landscape for over 30 years!
