Rotary’s main objective is service —
The 1.2 million Rotarians who make up more than 35,000 Rotary clubs in nearly every country in the world share a dedication to the idea of Service Above Self. Rotary clubs are open to people of all cultures and ethnicities and are not affiliated with any political or
religious organizations.
The San Antonio Northeast Rotary Club has been serving our community since 1987.

PDG Jerry Hardy, left, was our guest speaker last week.
PDG Jerry is The Rotary Foundation Chair for Rotary District 5840.
The mission of The Rotary Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.
After his very information talk about The Rotary Foundation, PDG Jerry was presented with a copy of an article written by Arch Klumph, Rotary International president in 1916-1917 by club secretary Dan Clark. It was at the 1917 Rotary Convention that Arch Klumph proposed to set up an endowment “for the purpose of doing good in the world.” In 1928, it was renamed The Rotary Foundation, and it became a distinct
entity within Rotary International.
