Welcome to the Rotary Club of South Pasadena

Serving South Pasadena Since 1938

Welcome to the Rotary Club of South Pasadena: a vibrant community of neighbors, professionals, business owners, educators, artists, and volunteers united by a shared commitment to Service Above Self.

For nearly nine decades, our club has been creating positive change in South Pasadena and beyond through hands-on service, leadership, friendship, and collaboration. Whether we’re supporting local schools, investing in youth leadership, improving our community, promoting peace, protecting the environment, or participating in humanitarian projects around the world, we believe meaningful change begins when people come together with a common purpose.

This Rotary year, under President Tom Camarda’s theme, Creativity for Lasting Impact, we celebrate the power of imagination in service. Lasting solutions are born when we welcome fresh ideas, embrace new partnerships, encourage innovation, and empower every member to contribute their unique talents. Together, we strive to build projects whose impact continues long after the work is complete.

Whether you’re looking to make a difference, connect with inspiring people, grow as a leader, or simply give back to your community, we invite you to discover Rotary and become part of our story.

July 2026 • A New Rotary Year Begins

July marks the beginning of a new Rotary year—a season of fresh leadership, renewed purpose, and exciting opportunities to serve. Across the world, Rotary clubs welcome new presidents, celebrate the accomplishments of the past year, and begin imagining what can be achieved together in the year ahead.

For the Rotary Club of South Pasadena, this July begins an exciting new chapter under President Tom Camarda and our annual theme, Creativity for Lasting Impact. Throughout the year, we will challenge ourselves to think creatively, build meaningful partnerships, and develop projects that strengthen our community while creating benefits that endure for years to come.

Whether you’re a longtime member or visiting us for the first time, there has never been a better time to get involved. We invite you to join us as we begin another year of friendship, service, leadership, and lasting impact.

Welcome to a new Rotary year. Welcome to Rotary.
