Welcome to Wilshire Rotary Club of Los Angeles! Rotary is part of a global network of over a million friends, neighbors, leaders, and problem solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change. I am honored to lead a club built on service, leadership, friendship, and a genuine commitment to making our communities stronger.
 
Rotary is a place where professionals, business leaders, and community members come together to create meaningful change while building lifelong relationships. We are a vibrant service club where members feel connected, inspired, and empowered to make a difference. By growing our club and engaging new voices, ideas, and perspectives, we will continue expanding our impact throughout Wilshire and beyond.
 
Our strength has always been found in action. Whether we are mentoring youth, supporting and responding to community needs, or partnering with organizations that share our values, Wilshire Rotary is committed to doing good work that leaves a lasting impact. We are also excited to further activate and support our growing Interact Clubs, empowering high school and middle school students to become leaders in service alongside their peers. Through the mentorship of our Rotarians, these young leaders are learning that service isn't just something you do, it's a way of life that strengthens communities and shapes future generations.
 
If you've ever wanted to make a difference, expand your network, develop as a leader, or simply belong to a group of people who care deeply about their community, I invite you to learn more about Wilshire Rotary. Let's connect! 
 
"Do Good, Have Fun." Join us!
 
 
LARCHMONT CHARTER
BUSINESS PITCH COMPETITION
 

This Wednesday join us for our Ebell luncheon where we will hear from the eight finalists from our Larchmont Charter Interact Club Business Pitch Competition. The original competition has been narrowed down to eight finalists out of 24 submissions. Their reward is to get to present their pitches to Wilshire Rotarians at this luncheon and who knows where they might go from there!?

The students will be presenting pitches which fit into either of two tracks:

The Business Innovation Track
Primary purpose is to solve a customer problem that will generate revenue and profit.
 
The Social Innovation Track
Primary purpose is to solve a social problem and make a positive impact on people or their environment.
 

You will all be acting as judges and will be given a rubric and guidelines but are not expected to make personal investments.

We've never done this before, it is an idea that our students came up with and we just wanted to support their enthusiasm and creativity - so let's do just that ..... register now for the luncheon:https://wilshirerotary.org/event/youth--quot-shark-tank-quot--presentations/

 
Last Wednesday's zoom peace discussion allowed participants from clubs throughout the district to go into breakout rooms to discuss concepts with facilitators from around the world -Turkey, Kenya, India, Wales and in the U.S. (LA, Ohio, North Carolina).
The discussions were a great follow-up to the Peace oriented "Difficult Conversations" Workshop put on by our club in February.
Please join us for the second part of the discussion on June 7th, even if you couldn't attend the first one.
