Welcome to the Rotary Club of Millcreek

Our Rotary club is service and friendship minded, and we have planned a great year of service and fellowship activities. We are casual, down to earth, and fun loving. We serve our community while enjoying each other’s company. One of our goals is to respect each other’s time, with each member doing what they can, when they can. Please consider joining us if you are interested in service to your community and having fun!

House of Hope, makes it their goal to serve as many women and children as they possibly can. They believe recovery is possible for anyone who wants it, regardless of the obstacles that may stand in the way. They help women to realize their potential and instill hope in them that they can recover.
 
This year, our House of Hope Mother’s Day project was a huge success!  We enjoyed great support from a number of club members.  We purchased and packaged special gifts for all of the mothers.  The House of Hope choir then honored us by singing two beautiful songs in thanks.  We were awed by the recovery story of one mother who shared her story of recovery and now works with the clients who are on their journey to recovery.  This is the eighth year we have done this project.

In April 2024, the Millcreek Rotary Club supported the annual community resource fair at the Bud Bailey Apartment complex.  It was a collaborative effort of Millcreek Promise and Utah Housing Connect, along with many other community organizations.  Our team of 6 served chicken sandwiches with all the fixings and chips, which were supplied by the Millcreek Promise team.
