    Internationally, the Club participates in Rotary International’s End Polio Now campaign. Since launching this landmark program in 1985, Rotary International’s 33,000 local Clubs have donated more than $800 million to the cause of polio eradication world-wide.

The Club introduced this project in 2012 and to date 48% of Sedona’s eligible pre-school children receive a free book monthly until their fifth birthday.

    The Rotary Club of Sedona meets every Tuesday noon at the Barking Frog Grille. The club’s mission is to enhance community through service, teamwork and friendship.
