Past Events:

 

United Way Day of Caring  - August 28, 2010 - Project: United Family Services Building and Property

Our club gives back to the Monroe community one citizen at a time. We obtain a name from the United Way and spend a Saturday morning helping that homeowner with yard work and needed chores. This year we trimmed hedges, pruned trees, cleanout natural areas and prepared the debris for pick up by Waste Collection. 

The guys tackled the yard and property while the ladies from the Wingate University Rotaract Club worked inside.

Max Mitchum Memorial Golf Tournament - March 25, 2011
This year it was cloudy but we DIDN'T get WET! Our 4th annual golf tournament scholarship fund raiser was still a Huge Success! And Stonebridge Golf Club was the perfect place. We had dedicated

College Scholarship Program  


The largest ongoing service project undertaken by the Monroe-Union Breakfast Rotary Club is providing scholarships to local students.

 

The unique feature which our scholarship program is based upon is service to our community or to the environment. Nominated students prepare a personal essay about their service and present an oral presentation to club members. We have student nominees from each high school in Union County. Our Scholarship Committee reviews each application and makes the decisions on the scholarships to be awarded during our Annual Scholarship Banquet.

 

Union County is not only the fastest growing county in North Carolina, it is also one of the fastest growing counties in the country. Our challenge is to keep pace with this growth. The Monroe-Union Breakfast Rotary Club is seeking "Partners in Excellence" to provide financial sponsorship for our scholarship program.

 

We feel our service based scholarship program helps to develop the community leaders of tomorrow. Your financial support will assist these students in achieving their career goals and will also help them along on the road to becoming the community leaders of the future.

Your donations are welcome.  Please contact us if you would like to sponsor Union County's youth.
