Chartered in December 18, 1986, the Rotary Club of Weston has grown to more than 100 members who live and/or work in the greater Weston area. It is part of an international organization with a membership of 1.25 million professionals and business leaders in 32,900 Clubs in over 200 countries. Rotary International's primary objective of service in the community, the workplace, and the world serves to link Rotary Clubs worldwide. Rotarians build goodwill, nurture peace, provide humanitarian aid, and encourage high ethical standards. As a result, Rotarians are dedicated to promoting international understanding.

Rotary provides each member with a unique opportunity to serve others by participating in projects to enhance the community and to help those in need throughout the world. From its inception, the Rotary Club of Weston is committed to participating in activities and raising funds for community and international projects. The Club currently organizes two major fundraisers each year, an annual Golf tournament and a 5k/half-marathon Holiday Run. With the support of sponsors, volunteers, Interactors and hard work from the Members, the two events raise more than $100,000 each year for local charities, community organizations, and college scholarships. A significant portion of fundraising is also donated to The Rotary Foundation, which sponsors educational grants, projects to provide medical and humanitarian relief to people in underdeveloped countries and eradicating Polio.
