We are pleased that you are visiting the Rotary Club of Flushing Website.  The Rotary Club of Flushing is a member of Rotary International, the world's first service club. Feel free to browse our website and see the range of activities that our Rotary Club in Flushing, Michigan, is engaged in to provide both international and local community service.    Among the initiatives that you will find: An Annual Scholarship awarded to two local high school graduates going on to college who exhibited extensive community service and volunteerism during their high school years;  a plan to revitalize the Flushing Riverview Park, a wonderful community resource in need of care; an annual Food Drive to support the Flushing Christian Outreach Center and the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan; and literacy initiatives in the Flushing Schools.  We conduct fundraisers such as our annual Duckie Race to support these initiatives and also Rotary International's global initiative to eradicate Polio, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control, United Nations, World Health Organization, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.  Since 1985 Rotary has raised nearly a billion dollars and immunized over 2 billion children across the globe to reduce cases of Polio by 99%.  Polio only remains in some parts of Pakistan, Nigeria, Afghanistan and India, and it is Rotary's hope to eradicate this disease in the next few years.   The Rotary Club of Flushing invites you to experience Rotary yourself. We extend an invitation for you to visit our Rotary Club at Sorrento's Restaurant in Flushing on Thursday mornings at 7:00AM. We hope you can stop by and see Rotary first hand making a difference in the world and our community, carrying out the Rotary motto of "Service Above Self."  For additional information about Rotary International visit http://www.rotary.org   You can also view the information in the "Rotary Basics Brochure" and "Flushing Rotary" in the Download area of this website to the right.
