End Polio Now Cornhole Tournament
In recognition of World Polio Day, the Rotary Club of Roswell dedicated the month of October to raising awareness and funds to support Rotary International’s effort to eradicate polio worldwide.
The club signature event was a cornhole tournament designed to bring members, families, and friends together for fellowship and service. Building on the success of prior years, the format was enhanced to allow members to participate through team sponsorships and donations collected during the club’s regular lunch meeting—broadening engagement beyond those attending the evening event. This approach resulted in more than 50% of club members participating in some capacity.

Providing Nutrition to our Senior Citizens
Roswell Rotary participates with North Fulton Senior Services in delivering meals to Seniors of the Community. This project is aimed at those individuals who have physical limitations that prevent them from preparing their own meals. In addition to delivering the lunches, this project also allows for a physical interaction with the Seniors. Instructions are in place in the event the Senior does not answer the door or who appear in need of help. Roswell Rotary has a commitment to cover the 3rd Wednesday and Friday of each month.
18 meals were dropped off for the 7/16/26 Meals on Wheels Project.

Roswell Arts Festival
The Roswell Arts Festival celebrated 59 years! This festival was originally started by Joan Hilliard, the wife of longtime Roswell Rotarian Maurice Hilliard.
Roswell Rotarians supported the event financially as well as civically. Rotarians sponsored and supported the community art project for the year in which community members and artists collaborated on a large mural that will be displayed in Roswell City Hall for the next year.
This event also provided an opportunity to tell people about Roswell Rotary to grow membership and led to many meaningful conversations and several invitations to lunch at both future Roswell Rotary events and Roswell Rotary After Hours events.
An additional benefit of this event is that it allows Roswell Rotary to accumulate hours working with the City of Roswell, as required in the MOU between the two parties. Meeting this hurdle helps ensure that the City, which owns the facility where the Club hosts weekly meetings, is justified in discounting the rate it charges for Club utilization.

RRAH Comedy For a Cause
3rd Annual Comedy for a Cause hosted by the Roswell Rotary After Hours Satellite Club
We turn laughter into support for those who need it most. This year,
we’re proud to partner with Giving Grace, a local Atlanta organization
dedicated to helping families with everything from child care assistance and
rent support to securing housing for those experiencing homelessness. Every
need is unique, and Giving Grace is there to meet people where they are. Now
it’s our turn to give back.
The total funds raised of $4,000 were turned over to Giving Grace in support of their mission to relieve families in need. The in-kind donation was the waive of rental fee for the space utilized for the event.
