Welcome to the Rotary Club of Strathroy
While here you will learn more about our vibrant and energetic club. We are one of nearly 34,000 worldwide Rotary Clubs in over 250 countries. Rotary has led the way to eradicate Polio, feed the hungry, provide clean water and bring peace to the World.
The Rotary Club of Strathroy was founded in 1989 and is grateful to have an active, dynamic and diverse membership. We are proud that we were the first club in the Country to welcome both men and women.
We are a group of diverse individuals coming together to positively impact our community as well as globally effect positive change. We have an active fellowship and social program throughout the year in addition to our works of service.
Our Club is known for many community service projects including the Strathroy Splash Pad, The Rotary Trail and the new palliative care suite at the Strathroy hospital. We also lead the little library, Blood donor clinic and provide educational scholarships.

Throughout India and around the world, Rotary clubs are celebrating a major milestone: India has gone three years without a new case of polio. The last reported case was a two-year-old girl in West Bengal on 13 January 2011. To mark this historic triumph, Rotary clubs illuminated landmarks and iconic structures throughout the country with four simple but powerful words, "India is polio free."
What is it like taking a large team to Africa? It has probably been one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. In mid February, I began leading Rotary members from all over the East Coast of the United States through Ghana. I’ve tried to give the team a warm Ghanaian welcome like I’ve received on my earlier trips. A large trip is a real blessing because each person sees Ghana and our work in a different way.
