Niles Rotary Library

We’ve created this corner of the website to share some of our favorite resources for people interested in learning more about Rotary. It’s also where we store a ‘scrapbook’ shelf of some of our favorite memories–after all, we’ve been ‘clubbing’ in Fremont/Niles nearly 90 years and we’ve lots of stories to share. That said, it’s not all about the past. To see what’s happening in real time, follow us on Facebook!

Rotary International Home: The primary official portal for the global organization, featuring news, Rotary’s mission, and overall impact.
The Rotary Foundation: The dedicated non-profit arm supporting sustainable international projects and global grants.
Rotary Club Finder: A searchable directory to locate local clubs, where ever you are in the world.
Rotary Causes: Details on the seven core areas of focus, including peacebuilding, disease prevention, and clean water.
Rotary Conventions: Information on attending Rotary’s annual international gatherings, which provide opportunities for first-timers to network with global members.
