The Rotary Club of East Palestine, Ohio

Dedicated Service to the Community

The Rotary Club of East Palestine was proud to be a Platinum Sponsor donating $25,000 to the ‘Brighten Our Future’ Fundraiser organized by the East Palestine Community Improvement Corporation (EPCIC). 

Chartered on May 14, 1956, with 31 charter members and the motto “Service Above Self,” the Rotary Club of East Palestine, Ohio, has been dedicated to serving our community for many years. Although our numbers are fewer now than in the past, our commitment remains strong. We organize numerous events and collaborate with other organizations to benefit our village and surrounding areas.

We meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month at 12:10 p.m. in the East Palestine Park Community Center. Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings and apply for membership.

Our members work together to raise funds for various initiatives, including the East Palestine High School Interact Club and leadership meetings like World Affairs and RYLA. We also support the literacy program at the East Palestine Library, provide scholarships for graduating seniors, and promote public speaking through the 4-Way Test District Speech Contest.

Our community events include:

  • Easter Breakfast with the Easter Bunny
  • Memorial Day Bike Brigade
  • East Palestine Rotary Youth Soccer Program
  • East Palestine Rotary Cross Country Invitational
  • East Palestine Rotary Car Cruise
  • Breakfast with Santa
  • Display of military flags at our cemetery

We are proud to serve the Village and residents of East Palestine and the surrounding communities.
