Unite for Good - Rotary

SERVICE ABOVE SELF​

Rotary is a volunteer community service organization of business and professional leaders who provide humanitarian service, and help to build goodwill and peace in the world. Rotarians are people who look beyond themselves to their community, nation and the world. They seek the truth, they let fairness govern their relationships, they endeavor to build goodwill and better friendships, they strive to benefit all in every inter-personal relationship. In short, a Rotarian puts service above self.

Welcome to Rotary Club of Yucaipa

Rotary is more than just a club — it’s a global network of neighbors, friends, and leaders who come together to create lasting change in our communities and around the world. Here in Yucaipa, we’re proud to be part of that tradition of service.

Who We Are

The Rotary Club of Yucaipa is a group of local professionals, business owners, and community members united by a common goal: to serve. From supporting youth scholarships and local nonprofits to hands-on projects that improve our city, we are dedicated to making Yucaipa a better place for everyone.

What We Do

  • Serve Our Community
    Partnering with schools, service organizations, and local initiatives.
  • Support Youth
    Providing scholarships, mentorship, and leadership opportunities for students.
  • Give Back Globally
    Contributing to international projects in health, education, and clean water.
  • Build Friendships
    Rotary is also about fellowship — creating lifelong friendships while doing good.

Our fundraising proceeds and donations are returned to the community through scholarships, youth programs, community service projects, and local initiatives.

A significant portion of these funds supports scholarships for students attending Yucaipa High School, Green Valley High School, and Crafton Hills College. At Crafton Hills College, we specifically help graduates of first responder and health-related programs offset testing and licensing expenses as they begin their careers.

This year alone, Yucaipa Rotary provided approximately $25,000 in scholarships to local students.

Join Us

Rotary is open to everyone who shares a heart for service. Whether you want to volunteer your time, share your skills, or simply connect with other community-minded people, there’s a place for you at Yucaipa Rotary. Together, we can make a difference.
