Rotary designates May as Youth Service Month, highlighting the importance of investing in young people and creating opportunities for them to lead, learn, and serve. For Atlanta West End, this observance is a chance to connect club priorities with the needs and potential of youth in our community.

Youth Service Month can guide clubs in planning speakers, programs, and projects that engage young people directly or support organizations that serve youth. It also offers an opportunity to showcase Rotary’s ongoing commitment to developing the next generation of leaders and community-minded citizens.

Examples of activities clubs may consider during Youth Service Month include:

• Mentoring and tutoring programs that support youth education and development
• Youth leadership workshops and speaker events
• Collaborative service projects with schools, youth groups, or local nonprofits
• Public image initiatives that highlight young people’s contributions and Rotary’s role in supporting them

By centering efforts on youth in May, Atlanta West End Rotary can strengthen community ties, encourage intergenerational collaboration, and demonstrate Rotary’s investment in a brighter future.
