Welcome to the Rotary Club of Comox Valley
This is not your parents’ Rotary club. We’re putting a new spin on Rotary. Keeping the vision, values and mission and formatting it in a way that is more meaningful to a new demographic of Rotarians. Our members are engaged and committed to the idea that together we can do more good, more often, in a way that fits our schedule.
We are a grassroots service organization and we continue partnering with innovative community groups to benefit the most vulnerable among us. We love to connect, have fun, and make a tangible difference in our community. We focus on improving the lives of people at risk, families and youth, and being responsible stewards of our local environment.
