History

The Rotary Club of Carmichael was founded way back in 1948. In the many years since, the Club has accomplished many humanitarian projects, perhaps too many to mention in this space. Right now, we are proud of the over $1,000,000 dollars that has been contributed over the last 20 years to Easter Seals through our annual golf tournament.

We also put on a Crab Feed in January-February that is very popular in our area and increasingly is attended by more and more people. The proceeds from this fund-raiser goes exclusively to many good works in the area.

Some of our charity projects are providing support for the Effie Yeaw preserve by providing benches and selling food and drinks, as well as helping with some of their events.

We also help sponsor and provide food for Special Olympics events.
We provide Dictionaries to young students and some scholarships.
We also participate in a Rotary Speech Contest that allows the winner to have a chance at going to the District Contest and win $1000.

Additionally, in partnership with Rotary International projects such as Polio Plus (which is eradicating polio world-wide) we are a gregarious group of local business men and women who have enjoyed the fun of fellowship while doing good in the world.
