Rochester Rotary is a diverse service organization for business and civic leaders looking to make a difference in our community.
Since our inception more than 100 years ago, our club has boasted a “who’s who” of the Flower City – leaders from every sector of the community: business and industry, education, human service, government, and more.
Today, our members’ volunteer spirit, generosity and commitment to community service remain vibrant. Through Rotary, Rochester’s leaders strive to achieve our mission of enriching the lives of Rochester’s youth, people with disabilities and of our world neighbors.
In addition to community service, we meet weekly for luncheons featuring expert speakers on the important topics of the day and we hold networking and fun social events.
Rochester Rotary and our more than 350 members are part of Rotary International, which is composed of more than 35,000 clubs with more than 1.2 million members worldwide.

3/11/25 - Full Meeting w/ Tim Bohen (Author - St. Patrick's Day Program)
Tim Bohen, author of Emerald Thread: The Irish in Buffalo (2024) and Against the Grain: The History of Buffalo's First Ward (2012). Tim takes us on a fascinating journey through the deep and unexpected ties between the Buffalo and Rochester Irish! Discover how Irish laborers conquered the most grueling sections of the Erie Canal, how fearless Irish sisters laid the foundations for hospitals and charitable institutions, and the astonishing tale of how Irishmen from across Western New York invaded Canada in 1866—hoping to ransom it for Ireland’s freedom. Plus, hear the stories of remarkable Irish men and women who left their mark on our region and beyond, shaping politics, entertainment, the military, and sports.
