The pulse of Rotary Club of Bangalore is the Service it has provided to the less fortunate in society for over 8 decades.
“ I expect to pass through this life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show ,or any good thing I can do to any fellow human being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it,as I will not pass this way again.”
William Penn

It goes without saying that the Club is a front runner in Rotary’s fight to eradicate Polio. Now that it has been eradicated from India , RCB continues the vigilance and efforts regardless, to maintain this status.
An array of ongoing health initiatives include Blood Donation Camps, Paedriatric Heart Surgeries, the limb –a-day programme and many more. Use Pictures and text from the RCB brochure).
Rotary Club of Bangalore considers education for underprivileged boys and girls its moral duty to fulfill. Towards this it owns and manages its own High school, Rotary Bangalore Vidyalaya which educates around 500 boys and girls. Situated in Nagadevanahalli , Bangalore ,the spacious and fully equipped school with its experienced staff is a symbol of good education.
