The Rotary Club of Chicago Southeast (RCCSE), Chartered on March 25th, 1997, was founded to address both local and international issues and concerns. Since that time, the RCCSE has sponsored youth career fairs, donated thousands of dictionaries to 3rd grade students in schools throughout the South Side, initiated tutoring programs for students in grammar, middle and high school, sponsored youth leadership programming and organizations for grammar, middle and high school students, donated funds and equipment to local food pantries, supported community gardens and supported coat drives for military veterans, actively supported the Annual Jesse White Foundation Trunk Party, in addition to many other service opportunities since our inception. We will continue to live by our motto as a Rotary Club of "Service Above Self" and ask that you assist us by donating to our Local Community Projects.
