Petaluma Valley Rotary's Service Projects
Rotary started with it' s first service project in 1907 with the construction of a Public Restroom. Similar to how many of our projects start, Paul Harris saw the people of Chicago had a need and Rotary created a project to fix that need. What needs do you believe our community have and can Rotary fix it?
Rotary shows that we are not too small to make a difference in this world.
