Rotary is an international organization of business and professional people with clubs all over the world. By joining Rotary you become a part of a worldwide family. When you travel, one of the highlights will be to attend a Rotary meeting. Your Rotary family anywhere in the world will welcome you warmly. Rotary performs international service, like working to eradicate polio and providing water wells and medical supplies. Our Rotary Club prides itself on its local service like Youth Programs and International Exchange, Incline Village Rotary Flower Garden, building and maintaining bus shelters, scenic benches, scoreboards, and the Lake Tahoe Overlook. We also support many local charities. Scroll down and you will see Opportunities for You to join in and Serve!

Hispanic Outreach Personalized Approach (HOPA). You would be a mentor to specially selected high school students to teach them about your profession. This would require about 30 to 60 minutes per month, October through June, coordinating with the organization and school. You would guide and support your student in exploring professional paths, applying for scholarships, building a resume, seeking letters of recommendation, and preparing for interviews. Email Ana Porras at ana.porras@washoeschools.net and let her know what your areas of expertise are so she can look for a good match with a prospective mentee.
