Vision: Strengthening fellowships with service organizations to invigorate local communities.

Mission: The Community Engagement Committee (CEC) aims to foster bonds between Rotary members while strengthening fellowships between the Rotary Club and community organizations. The CEC seeks to expand upon existing partnerships with community organizations by joining their local initiatives to service the community. Through organizing engagement and volunteer events, the CEC presents opportunities to develop meaningful interactions with community leaders from various organizations while promoting prosperity in local communities through impactful service events.
