Madison Rotary Mission
Madison Rotary members actively engage to eradicate food insecurity in our community, to empower youth and to partner with other local organizations to enrich the Madison community for all.
1000 Bags of Groceries Collected
The Madison High School Interact Club is AMAZING! And so is their advisor Carole Rawding. They are always looking for ways to positivity impact our community....over 1000 bags of food collected, Valentine Day cards for nursing home residents and first line responders and now the spring baskets. Join them this Saturday at the Madison Ambulance Corp parking lot and donate a bag of food and they'll take it to NourishNJ.
Madison Spring Fling Successful
On Saturday, March 27th hundreds of people brought boxes of papers to be shredded at the Madison Rotary’s semi-annual Community Shredding Day at the Madison Municipal Parking at the corner of Prospect Street and Kings Road. People also donated furniture at a Morris Habitat for Humanity truck on site and donate food at the Interact Club tent on site as well. Interact is the high school club version of Rotary.  Click Read More for additional information.

Madison Installation Dinner - July 9, 2021
Dictionary Service Project Goes Virtual
Madison Rotary has distributed a personalized dictionary to every third grader in Madison for the last 20 years.  This year the Covid pandemic has made in person dictionary distribution impossible.  Judy Degennaro, Dictionary Program Chair, has worked with all of the schools in Madison and Rotary will continue the long-standing  tradition of ensuring that all of the 218 third graders attending school in Madison will receive their personal dictionary.  Everyone knows that a dictionary is a powerful tool for increasing vocabulary, helping young readers to advance their reading level and expand their written and spoken level of communication and expression.  Below is the video that was shown to all third graders that explains Madison Rotary and the Dictionary program.  For information on how to become involve with Madison Rotary, contact Joe Smith at jtsmith0443@gmail.com

Madison High School Interact Club - Food Drive
Food insecurity in Madison will continue for the foreseeable future.  To help meet that need Madison High School Interact Club sponsored by Madison Rotary will be providing a free food donation pickup.  We currently have over 50 families participating.  Our goal is to engage over 100 Madison families.

  • We will provide your family with reusable, weather resistant bag.
  • Your family would place non-perishable items in the bag.
  • We will pick-up your bag on a scheduled day and leave you an empty one
  • We will deliver your donated items to the First Baptist Church of Madison Food Pantry which serves families in need.

Madison Rotary Becomes Official Charity
The Madison Rotary has transitioned into a 501(c)(3) organization as of July 1, 2020, announced the rotary.  The Rotary Club of Madison, a social welfare service organization, has been serving our local and global communities since 1923, said the organization. Over the past 33 years, the Rotary Club of Madison Foundation has successfully carried out humanitarian projects, such as End Hunger 3.6, to help fight food insecurity locally. The two entities have merged after a year-long, unification process to streamline governance, administrative and financial development operations, they announced.  Click Read More for additional details.

End Hunger 3.6 - A Great Success
Rotary District 7475 and Madison Rotary say "thank you" to over 1,000 volunteers who packaged 185,000 meals that will all be distributed to those who are food insecure in New Jersey.  Volunteers came from local Rotary Clubs, community organizations, churches, youth groups, schools, individuals and families and more.  Another special thank you to all sponsors and donors who are critical to the success of the program. We also appreciate the support of Drew University and the use of Simon Forum on March 7th where the meals were packaged.  Our program is the largest food packaging in New Jersey and in the Northeast.  What was accomplished will make a difference in the lives of hundreds of people.  If you would like to become involved as a volunteer with Madison Rotary or End Hunger contact Barry Kroll at barrykroll@aol.com or 973-376-2772 for additional details.

Madison Rotarians Read to 2nd Graders
Reading to children has been proven to be the most effective way to improve a child's reading ability because the reader can engage with the child at his or her level of comprehension rather than at the child's own reading level, which might not be at the same level.  Most importantly, it is key to have fun with reading:  to illustrate to the children that reading is a joy that they will have forever, that it can take them wherever they dream to go, and give them the opportunity to learn whatever they choose.  When I ask the children why they like to read, my favorite answer is, "Because it's fun!"  Madison Rotarians visited the Madison second-grade classrooms and read “Andy & Elmer’s Apple Dumpling Adventure” to the children.  This project promotes literacy and a love of reading while also introducing the children to Rotary and the concept of The Four-Way Test.   The book was developed by a Rotary Club in Ohio and has become a national service event.

Michael and Claire Rabasca Award
Today Mom and I saw Dad at rehab and he was thrilled and honored to receive the “Michael and Claire Rabasca Award”. This award was created and presented by The Rotary Club of Madison NJ for his 58 years of service. For anyone who knows my parents, you know that the Rotary motto, “Service above Self” is not just a motto.... it’s a way a life for them. It’s what they have done together for 58 years and 66 years of marriage. Going forward, the Rotary Club of Madison NJ will present this award to a well deserved member on an annual basis.
