Our Mission is Service Above Self, and Goodwill through our Fellowship with Business and Community. The Padre Island Rotary is a service group.
The Rotary Club of Padre Island meets the 2nd and 4th Tuesday at 5:30pm at Island Time Sushi Bar and Seafood Grill, Padre Island. We raise funds and spend the majority of our monies in the local community. We support the Adoption Awareness Picnic program that pairs local foster children in our area with vetted families for adoption; we support Interact, which is the high school equivalent of Rot
ary. This program has been thriving at Flour Bluff High school for years. There are over 100 members. Our cub has several members that work as sponsors along with a school sponsor. We give out a number of scholarships throughout the year for academia and community services. We support RYLA which is a rotary sponsored Youth Leadership Camp. We pay for up to 3 selected Interact members to attend each year. We supply them with their club shirts, and snacks for their meeting. Another favorite program is our Women’s Shelter Birthday Party. Each month we check with the local women’s shelter and find out how many of the children have birthdays. Our members pick up pizzas, several birthday cakes,drinks and age appropriate gifts for each birthday child. We also support Timon’s Ministries back pack and tennis shoe program. Our International side is always helping to raise money to eradicate Polio throughout the world. We are at 99.9% Polio free. We are currently partnering with several other Corpus Christi Rotary Clubs to support a health clinic in Haiti. There are well over 100,000 Rotary clubs around the globe all working to give back to their communities and to make the world a better place for everyone. We all work with each other when and where we can. Thank you for helping us to help those who need it. For additional information contact Linda Walsh at [email protected]
