We pride ourselves on integrating our membership with the community, seeking out needs and developing solutions. Here is a sampling of some projects we’ve done or are doing locally.
Sleep Cubbies Project
This is a project that started in 2022/2023 when President Jay Murphy introduced a multi-year large scale project that our club is supporting, both financially and via volunteers. The project has grown to where it is now its own 501.c.3 called Sleep Cubbies, Inc. Please click HERE to see details of the project.
Halloween Books Instead of Candy Project
This project began in 2010 when the Encanto Palmcroft neighborhood decided that it would be better to provide books to young kids rather than candy. Each year, they distribute roughly 4000 books to about 2000 kids on Halloween night. They block off the street, and volunteers from Rotary Interact Clubs, Rotaract Clubs, and Rotary Clubs all volunteer by helping the kids pick out books of interest. Please join us on Halloween night. Contact Jay Murphy.
Volunteers Needed: St. Luke's Food Pantry Distribution

We have been helping to distribute food at St Luke’s of the Mountain for 11years. Yes, it’s an early morning gig, but for those in need, it can be a lifesaver. Every 2nd and 4th Saturday, rain or shine. Join us. Volunteers are needed.
St. Mary's Food Bank provides a mobile food delivery service to partners like St. Luke's at the Mountain Church twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays, 5:30 - 8 am. To donate supplies, email Les Deviat at St. Luke's.
