Greetings Members and Guests!
I'm happy you came to visit our Rotary website and proud to welcome you to our global community of more than 1.4 million men and women dedicated to building a better world. We all make Rotary stronger by adding our skills, experience and enthusiasm in our community and on global projects.
Our Rotary International District 5180 has 36 clubs centered in Sacramento, and stretching from the Oroville Dam to our beautiful river delta. Formed amongst two powerful California rivers, our 1,700 Rotarians help make "The Magic of Rotary" take hold locally and around the world to further Peace, Health and Fellowship.
What makes our Clubs irresistible is the connection they forge between their members and the communities they help every year. It's our Clubs that support Rotary Youth Exchange students from around the globe. It's our individual members that lead the charge to make clean water a reality in other countries.
"Service Above Self" is the motto that sums up what makes Rotary work. Life long friendships are the bonus that you don't see coming when you start making the world better. These new friends are in our Clubs, our communities and often in another part of the planet, where those gifts we have developed here, make a difference in the world there.
If you would like to visit any of our Rotary Clubs and see the "Magic of Rotary," please come and and see us. I'm happy to help with an introduction or you can reach out to our many clubs on this page.
Sincerely,
Steve Turner
District Governor 2024-25
