About Us

Welcome To Auburn WA Rotary

The Rotary Club of Auburn is the local Rotary International club serving Auburn, Washington, and the surrounding community. We are part of Rotary District 5030, which includes Rotary clubs throughout the greater Seattle area and the Puget Sound region.

Chartered in 1957, the Auburn Rotary Club brings together professionals and community-minded individuals who meet regularly to give back locally while supporting global humanitarian efforts. Today, the club is an active and thriving fellowship made up of business owners, professionals, community members, local government officials, educators, and others who share a passion for service and making a difference.

Our work focuses on addressing real needs both close to home and around the world. Key areas of focus include education through scholarships and the fostering of young minds, environmental and habitat restoration projects, and local and global infrastructure initiatives, along with a wide range of additional service projects that strengthen communities.

Above all, Auburn Rotary is a place where relationships are built, ideas are shared, and service is amplified through collective action. We believe that working together—across backgrounds and professions—creates lasting, meaningful change.

Serving Our Community. Supporting Our World.

About Rotary International

Rotary International is a global service organization that brings together business, professional, and community leaders to create positive, lasting change. Founded in 1905, Rotary connects over 1.4 million members in clubs around the world, all united by a shared commitment to service above self.

Rotary’s mission is to provide humanitarian service, promote high ethical standards, and advance goodwill and peace. Members work both locally and internationally to address critical issues such as disease prevention, clean water and sanitation, education, economic development, and environmental sustainability.

One of Rotary’s most notable initiatives is its leadership in the global effort to eradicate polio, a campaign that has reduced cases by more than 99% worldwide. In addition to global programs, local Rotary clubs play a vital role in strengthening their communities through service projects, scholarships, and partnerships.

Rotary International also supports youth development through programs such as Rotaract and Interact, helping young leaders build skills and make an impact early in life.
