About Us

​

We are a group of  8 enterprising people representing all ages, backgrounds residing mainly in the NY-NJ-CT  Tri-State area.   We share an interest in sharing our experience, knowledge, and concern to help those around us and elsewhere in the world who are in need.  One of our members is a former Rotaractor with a rekindled interest in "Service Above Self".

​

The idea of forming a Rotary Club was born quite a while ago.  A chance encounter with Assistant Governor Bina Ahmad got us started.  It took us almost no time to gather all the information necessary and to get ourselves organized.  Taking over a dormant Rotary Club we were able to get started quickly.

​

We will gradually grow our membership with like-minded individuals with a passion for service.  We will endeavor to undertake local and international projects, large and small, leveraging our own resources with those of like-minded individuals and organizations, as well as those of the Rotary District and the Rotary Foundation.

​

We also hope to engage with neighboring Rotary Clubs and other service organizations.

​

While we await the approval of our name change by Rotary International, which much better reflects our aspirations and focus, we are in the process of organizing ourselves.  For the foreseeable future due to our widely spread-out membership, we will meet regularly via Zoom, but our emphasis is on projects rather than meeting for the sake of meetings.

 

We welcome anyone, Rotarian or not, to our meetings.  Please send us an email at hopenyrotary@gmail.com and we will send you information about joining our meetings.
