Welcome to the Melissa Rotary Club

We are an active service organization whose volunteer members work under the motto SERVICE ABOVE SELF. From its beginning in 2010, the Melissa Rotary Club has had an impact through many service efforts in vital areas of our growing community.  We meet Thursdays at the Crossland Learning Center (the red building) at the Melissa ISD home office, 1904 Cooper Street, Melissa, TX 75454. Meetings are all open to the public: 7:30 a.m. the first and third Thursdays; 12 noon the second Thursday (Community Luncheon); 7:00 p.m. the fourth Thursday evening ("Rotary at Night"); No meeting the fifth Thursday.  Come Join Us!
How We Give Back
 

Supporting Local Library

Melissa Rotary volunteers help the City Library with many one-time projects.  At one Melissa Library Work Day, several members of the club got together to help put new desks together.
 

Revitalizing Playgrounds

The Melissa Rotary Club and local volunteers supported the community and City Parks Department by spreading huge piles of new mulch under playgrounds and trees.

 

Connecting Generations

Melissa Rotary sponsors quarterly social opportunities for people of all ages to build relationships with senior members of the Melissa Community at the Gala Apartments.
