About 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.

The Rotary Club of the Woodlands is the largest service club in South County. Some of our service projects include:

• Literacy
• Blood Donation
• Challenger League
• Mentoring (Elementary Schools)
• Community Restoration
• Student Leadership Development
• M.C. Food Bank
• Scholarships - Almost $1,000,000 in scholarships have been given out in 34 years of service

Distribution of Proceeds

A portion of Oktoberfest proceeds will go to The Woodlands Rotary Club Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) organization, raising funds for student scholarships benefitting local students and their families. The Woodlands Rotary Club Foundation has already given out almost $1,000,000 in scholarships in its 34 years of service.
