Lead something that matters in Whittier.
Business owners, professionals, retirees and neighbors: if you want to make a real difference in this city, and enjoy the people you do it with, there’s a seat at our table.
What you get out of Rotary.
Real relationships
Get to know Whittier’s bankers, CPAs, realtors, educators and business owners by working alongside them, not just trading business cards.
Room to lead
We’re a close-knit club, which means every member gets to lead. Have an idea for a project? You can be running it next month.
Shape the next generation
Mentor students through RYLA, our Interact club at Cal High, the speech contest and Battle of the Bands.
A global network
Your membership opens the door to 46,000+ Rotary clubs and 1.4 million members around the world.
Skills you can use
Public speaking, project management, fundraising and nonprofit leadership, all practiced on real projects.
Fun, honestly
Good lunch, good people, a few laughs every meeting. Service is a lot easier when you like the people next to you.
People from every corner of Whittier.
Our members include a community banker, a CPA, a home care business owner, real estate professionals, a retired community college administrator, a family therapist, and small business entrepreneurs. Different careers, same goal: a stronger Whittier.
