"If you have the love of your fellow man in your hearts, my friends, you are a potential Rotarian."

-Paul Harris

The Warrington Rotary Club is a group of community-minded residents and neighbors who come together for service and fellowship. Our service projects and fundraising are directed to local, national and international causes. We are always seeking out like-minded folks to join us in putting "Service Above Self." Reach out to us or join us at a club meeting to learn how you can get involved.

Current and Upcoming Events

Two Upcoming Projects

Our Board recently approved two exciting projects:

- We applied for and received a grant to support The Fiaria Project. The Fiaria Project, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Bucks County, Pennsylvania dedicated to supporting foster families through transitions. "Transition kits" provide foster children with essential clothing, toiletries, and other basic items. The Warrington Rotary will be providing financial and volunteer support to The Fiaria Project.

- Our club will be funding additional benches to enhance community enjoyment of the trail system in Warrington Township. New benches will be installed within the Weisel Preserve.

First and foremost, I appreciate that the Warrington (PA, USA) Rotary takes an interest in the service of our immediate community in addition to the service of our district and global initiatives. We cannot forget that all we do together is on the heels of 57 years of service to the Warrington community through Rotary. Warrington Rotary is a 100% Paul Harris Fellow Club, with each of our 40 members contributing to Rotary International service initiatives. We are indeed a mighty club!

It has been an honor to lead as President in the 2021-2022 fiscal year. I sincerely thank our entire team and membership in achieving and in surpassing all forecasted goals of community service, membership, and financial contribution. As we commence the 2022-2023 fiscal year, I look forward to leading opportunities in growing Warrington Rotary through new projects and fundraising events. We look forward to making the next year an even greater success.

Sincerely,

Lou Altomari
