Service Above Self is the mission of the Rotary Club of Marion. The club demonstrates this ethic by actively engaging members in community projects and endeavors that do good both locally and abroad. Established in 1939 club members have contributed significantly to the well being of the city and county by raising funds annually to distribute for worthy projects whose contributions to our community exceed expectations. The Rotary Club of Marion endeavors to fill gaps in funding by recognizing small projects and their impact within our community. The club is also committed to youth development and international support of water and wheel chair projects in developing countries.
