The Normal Rotary Club is a service organization. The club is comprised of individuals who have a passion “to give back to the community” on a local and international level. NRC members’ shared passion for service helps us initiate service projects to address today’s challenges, including literacy, disease, hunger, poverty, lack of clean water, and environmental concerns. Applicants are encouraged to review Rotary International’s mission at the following website: http://www.rotary.org.
