About Us

The Southern Sussex Rotary Club (chartered on September 29, 1992) is a group of neighbors, professionals, business leaders, and community volunteers dedicated to making a positive impact in Sussex County and beyond. Guided by Rotary’s motto, “Service Above Self,” we support local and international projects that strengthen our communities, promote goodwill, and improve lives.

Our members volunteer their time, talents, and resources to support youth programs, educational initiatives, community service projects, veterans, first responders, and charitable organizations throughout the region. Signature events such as Flags for Heroes honor those who serve and sacrifice while raising funds to support meaningful community causes.

As part of the global network of Rotary International, we are connected to more than 1.4 million members worldwide who are committed to creating lasting change through service, leadership, and fellowship.

Whether you are looking to give back, build connections, develop leadership skills, or make a difference in your community, we welcome you. Together, we are working to create stronger communities, support those in need, and inspire positive change—one project at a time.
