Making the World a Better Place
Each Tuesday Milwaukee’s business, professional and community leaders come together at the War Memorial Center for lunch to listen and learn about the key issues affecting our community--the largest weekly gathering in the metro Milwaukee area. 

Members of The Rotary Club of Milwaukee are part of a worldwide network of over 1.2 million men and women who make a difference in the lives of people in their communities and around the world.  Rotarians work together to find solutions for issues of poverty, illiteracy, clean water, environmental improvement, hunger, disease and many more.

Service Above Self
Rotarians in the Rotary Club of Milwaukee:

• Make a difference in Milwaukee and around the world.
• Are part of team doing hands on service opportunities to a variety of local organizations
• Have the chance to be part of the global effort to make a polio free world
• Support youth exchange programs here and abroad

Each year the club gives about $150,000 to the community and projects in developing countries.  Many important local institutions came about through the inspiration and enterprise of this club’s members including the Greater Milwaukee Committee, the Children’s Health Education Center, Second Harvest of Wisconsin, the Marcus Center for the Performing Art and more.  As part of an international organization, we regularly support student exchange and scholarships for international study and provide support to self-sustaining projects in Third World countries. Today, we are considering support of a water treatment and bottling project in Tanzania.

Opening Doors
Rotary offers the chance to network and make lasting friendships with some of Milwaukee business, professional and community leaders. Rotarians meet each week for fellowship, professional enrichment and the opportunity for service and are welcome at any of the 33,000 clubs around and enjoy the worldwide camaraderie of an international organization.

Provocative Programs
The club gathers each week to hear from top rate business, civic and political leaders, sports and entertainment figures and scientists on timely topics.  Rotarians learn about international affairs, public policy and have the chance to witness live political debates.

Twice yearly, the Rotary Club of Milwaukee hosts its Civil Conversations on Tough Topics series--programs that will engage and inspire us. Our C2T2s allow us to meet and workshop with other organizations and community leaders and learn how to move all of us forward, building community and encouraging discourse to positively impact Milwaukee, our region, nation and the world.
