The Rotary motto is “Service Above Self.”
The Rotary Club of Sacramento is an association of business and community leaders serving the Sacramento region and enriching the professional and personal lives of our members.
Our mission is to be of service – in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world. Rotary members and volunteers build goodwill and peace, provide humanitarian service, and encourage high ethical standards in all vocations.
We are a non-political and non-sectarian organization open to all people. We look for opportunities to put “Service Above Self”, which is the main guiding principle for all Rotarians. We warmly welcome you to come to one of our Tuesday luncheon meetings and meet some of the business and civic leaders that comprise our Club.
