Together, we grow, open opportunities and serve the community.

Dear Saratoga Rotarians,

It has been a year of challenge and change but also one of appreciation and innovation as we all find ways to cope with the pandemic. On Dec 4th, we had the privilege of hearing from Club Presidents since the 80’s and learned about some of the challenges faced by the club. But, we collectively have persevered and are in our 65th year after we received our charter!

I feel blessed that I am in the company of fellow Rotarians who, together, ease the burden of those less fortunate for food, clothing, shelter, and health. Thank you all for your support and conviction to the Rotary vision. We are optimistic for a better year ahead, when we can at some point meet in person.

Wishing everyone health and happiness as 2021 dawns upon us,

Sesh

Community Service Project: Martha's Kitchen

What a great start to the week on an early Monday morning by helping someone? Its good karma! Martha’s Kitchen on Willow Street offers this opportunity ! A clean, airy, bright, hygienic and socially distanced work tables allows volunteers to make sandwiches,cut vegetables or whatever else is needed for the day. The food assembled or prepared there (lunch and dinner) is taken to several places in the South Bay to feed the homeless. Two weeks ago, ten of us Rotarians, spent 2-4 hours doing just that!
Kudos to Jamie, Terrence, Cynthia, Larry, Maria, Phil, David Guidry (w/daughter), Sangita, Sesh and Nada (w/camera). Our club intends to do this monthly – so if you are interested, please contact our 2020-21 Community Services Chair – Jamie Price.

Saratoga Rotary help feed the hungry in our communities

Immediately reacting to the immediate needs of the local West Valley Community, the members of The Saratoga Rotary donated $11,000 to West Valley Community Services. The needed funds are for the increased demand for food due to COVID-19. In addition, the club has donated an additional $1,000 for food to West Valley College students who are food insecure and now effected by COVID-19. In addition, Saratoga Rotarians have also donated $800 for meals that go directly to our medical providers.
Stay tuned for additional stories of volunteering at kitchens that cater to the homeless.

Saratoga Rotary Art Show

We are very sorry to announce that the 2020 Saratoga Rotary Art Show was cancelled due to COVID-19.

The 2021 Saratoga Rotary Art Show is scheduled for first weekend in May. Produced since 1957 by members of the Saratoga Rotary Club, the Saratoga Rotary Art Show raises funds for local and international charities under the guidelines of the Saratoga Rotary Charitable Foundation. To date, the Saratoga Rotary Foundation has granted over $2.5 million to local and international nonprofits serving the needs of our communities and those worldwide.

The Saratoga Art show is produced with 99% support from our club members, family members and friends. We raise the support funds, market the event, serve wine and beer, organize the entertainment, welcome the artists with food and beverage, and encourage the community to come and buy!
