The Rotary Club of Green Bay participates in and supports many community activities. We are honored to have repeatedly received the Presidential Citation from the president of Rotary International for our performance in Rotary's Four Avenues of Service: Club Service, Community Service, Vocational Service and International Service.

Some of the specific projects of the club are:

* The annual Free Enterprise Award (Click here for photo) banquet honoring a business and community leader. Besides honoring outstanding leaders of the Green Bay community, the event also serves as the primary fund-raiser for the Green Bay Rotary Foundation, which provides financial support to many worthy community non-profit groups with emphasis on those benefiting youth and business awareness.

* Every year we honor two outstanding seniors at six local high schools with the Rotary Youth Leadership Award (Click here for photo). Students, parents and school administrators participate in a club meeting. And each student receives a scholarship award.

* The club also selects and honors an adult youth leader in the community with the Rotary Adult Youth Leadership Award (Click here for photo).

* To combat the illiteracy problems in the Green Bay community, the club has provided substantial support for the "Give-A-Kid-A-Book" program.

* To combat the hunger problems in the Green Bay community, club members collect unused, but still usable food from the Lambeau Field skyboxes immediately following Packer games. The food is then distributed through Paul's Pantry. Each season about 19,000 pounds of food is distributed. Click here for photo.

* Club members monitored polling places on Election Day for the Kids' Voting project.

* Green Bay Rotarians have also helped those in need of adequate housing by participating in a Habitat For Humanity home restoration project.

* Believing in the international mission of Rotary, the club has also collected blankets and medical supplies for use in southern Africa, and hosted adult and youth members of Rotary exchange programs.

* The club also supports the holiday needs of the Salvation Army by having Rotarians ring the bells.
