Charlotte Dilworth South End Rotary Club
The Charlotte Dilworth South End Rotary Club
A volunteer organization committed to Service above Self. Since 1948, we have brought together Rotarians and friends in fellowship, networking, and meaningful service to create lasting positive change.
Our clubs are a proud part of the Charlotte community, Rotary District 7680, and Rotary International. Rotary is a global network of more than 1.2 million members who believe that great things happen when dedicated minds come together.
As Rotarians, we offer opportunities for our members and friends to get involved. Through meetings, social events, and volunteer projects, our members learn about local and global community needs, and partner with experts to create and implment potential solutions and action plans. Rotary activites also provide regular networking opportunities resulting in lifelong friendships and business connections.
