About Rotary and the Rotary Club of Gwinnett County

Rotary brings together a global network of business professionals and community leaders who dedicate their time and talent to tackle the world’s most pressing humanitarian challenges.  Rotary connects 1.2 million members from more than 200 countries and geographical areas.  Our work impacts lives at both the local and international levels, from helping families in need in our own community to working toward a polio-free world.

Solving real problems takes real effort, commitment, and vision.  The Rotary Club of Gwinnett County was established in 1973 and has been working to make a difference in our community ever since.  Through meetings, social events, and volunteer service projects, our members learn about the issues facing our community and communities all over the world, partnering with local, national, and global experts to exchange ideas about potential solutions and to draw up action plans to respond.
