Rotary Board and Committee Roster
The Hillsboro Rotary Club Committee Roster 2023-2024
The majority of the work done in our club is through a variety of committees. The committees are based on the five avenues of service in Rotary. The club expects all members to participate in one or more of these committees. We invite new members, join the Membership Committee for at least one year and choose one of the committees below. All committees are listed on the website along with the Chair, his/her contact information, and current committee members. Some committees only function at certain times of the year, while others are ongoing throughout the year.

The Foundation is a 501c(3) non-profit organization that raises and distributes funds to local & international worthy causes that are consistent with the mission of Rotary. Many of the fundraising activities of the Club members are on behalf of the Foundation. Functions of the Club and the Foundation go hand in hand.
