Aaron Jacobs

Welcome to the Rotary Club of York on behalf of myself, our board, and nearly 300 members who serve the York community. Our Rotary club is unique not only in the fact that we are a large club but also in our ever-diversifying membership. Our club is rich with traditions and Rotary values while adapting and responding to the changes we see in the world and our community.

The Rotary Club of York is a collection of community leaders who work together to serve and support various causes and initiatives in York City as well as around the world. Some of our focuses include the environment, children & youth as well as responding in times of crisis. We believe in service above self as we strive to be the best stewards in our community and improve our leadership both as a club and as individuals. If service and leadership resonate with you, perhaps you should consider learning more about our Rotary Club of York.

The strength of our club comes not only from our service but from the networking and program opportunities that we offer. Quite frankly, we are second to none in these categories. But for me, I have found that the Rotary Club of York has done more for me, both personally and professionally, than any other organization I serve with and it is a privilege to return that service as its president. We welcome many guests to our programs each week and I would personally like to extend that invitation to you. Come join us and see what all the excitement is about. We look forward to giving you a warm welcome and, who knows, perhaps you will be our newest member.

Warmest Regards,

Aaron Jacobs

President, the Rotary Club of York
