Service Above Self
Since 1920, Bismarck Rotary has served the Bismarck community through innovative leadership projects.
Rotary is an organization of business and professional leaders, united worldwide, who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
Locally and internationally, Bismarck Rotary focuses on service to youth. A growing college scholarship program, support of Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4-H, our Rotary Wrestling Tournament, and other youth programs are favorite projects of the club. Our passion for youth is fueled by our Junior Rotarian program where high school students attend our weekly meetings, sharing their lives, hopes, and dreams with Rotary members. We have been a major supporter of the God's Child Project and the Gift of Hope - our Lesotho Project in southern Africa was recently completed by becoming self supporting. Our new international project is in Ecuador .
