Our annual fundraiser is all hands on deck and every member of Roswell Rotary Club participates by volunteering, donating or sponsoring the tournament. Working through COVID restrictions, we were able to host 130 golfers and 100+ tennis players between morning and afternoon flights. As in the past, our traditional firemen's ball drop was a big hit.
Our tournaments enabled Roswell Rotary to give $140,000 to thirty local charities including our international project in Panama where we will provide two communities with clean water. Local charities support includes End Human Trafficking and Be The Voice which grew out of the efforts of Roswell Rotarians.
In January our Charity Committee determines which causes should benefit from this years proceeds. Each local charity submits a grant request through a formal application process with a deadline of Dec. 1st. Funds were distributed in March.

The 42nd Aubrey Greenway Golf and 8th Hagan Cup Tennis Classic Tournament was held September at Country Club of Roswell; 130 golfers and 100 tennis players participated. The day also included an auction and the annual golf ball drop. Roswell Rotary raised $140,000 to support local charities and international projects.
The tournament has grown into one of the largest all volunteer community fundraisers. Roswell Rotary would like to thank the volunteers and sponsors who gave from their hearts to make a difference.
