Rotary is an international humanitarian service organization of business and community leaders, and volunteers who are willing and able to
support
the Rotary International
mission
. Men and women, doing incredible things together, within their Rotary clubs, and in concert with Rotarians around the world. Rotarians believe in improving people's lives, leading to a better and more peaceful world, while having fun doing so. Targeted for elimination are poverty,
disease
, hunger, illiteracy, and pollution. We
commit
time, talent, experience and
resources
to make a positive difference. Founded in 1905, Rotary has over 1.5 million members around the world. Rotary helped develop the original United Nations charter in 1947 and holds a seat at the United Nations. Rotary clubs meet weekly to discuss, plan and adopt service projects, recognize members' successes and achievements, inspire others with whom Rotarians come in contact,
enjoy
fellowship, and have fun.
Rotary's motto is: "Service Above Self"
Rotarians also apply a "4-Way Test" in conduct and making decisions:
- Is it the truth?
- Is it fair to all concerned?
- Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
- Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
There are approximately 35,000 member clubs worldwide. A tenet of Rotary is that developing friendships encourages community and international service.
On Saturday, September 12, 2020 we joined the management of ImagineThat!!! at 4 Vreeland Road in Florham Park to honor the Front Line Heroes who have served our community. Club President George Gregor joined Tony D'Amato and Cheryl Taylor in welcoming local citizens in meeting and greeting members of local police, fire department, the volunteer first aid squad and health workers. Local college student and active EMS volunteer Dale Bridge was presented with a citation of having his name added to the Florham Park Rotary "Service Above Self" plaque that hangs on the wall at Florham Park Borough Hall.
The Rotary Club of Florham Park is one of 83 Rotary Clubs in District 7475.
On Saturday, October 16, 2021, Florham Park Rotary, in partnership with the management of Pet Supplies Plus of Florham Park, will present a Halloween Dog Parade and Costume Contest, as part of a continuing program to fund the Rotary's sustainable Scholarship Award program for the benefit of Florham Park residents graduating High School.
