Together we care.
If you would like to share your skills and help others in your community, then Rotary is the place for you.
For nearly a century the men and women of Rotary in Dunedin have been caring for our community and its people whilst sharing their skills and time to help make a better place for everyone.
If you care too, come and share your skills and time with us. Our club members are dedicated people who share a passion for both community service and friendship.
Becoming a Rotarian connects you with a diverse group of people who share your drive to give back.
- Discuss your community's needs and discover creative ways to meet them
- Expand your leadership and professional skills
- Catch up with good friends and meet new ones
- Connect with leaders from all continents, cultures, and occupations
We understand that our members lead busy lives so we don’t expect everyone to come to every meeting or be involved in every project.
We also understand that families are important and we love to have family members join us at meetings or projects.
