There’s never been a better time to get involved.
At the Rotary Club of Hamilton, we believe that building a better city starts with neighbours helping neighbours. Every month, we roll up our sleeves to lead hands-on service projects right here in Hamilton, and we’re inviting you to join us! Whether you’re passionate about education, food security, or holiday cheer — there’s a way for you to make a real impact.
Here are just a few of the community programs you can jump into:
📚 Rotary Summer Literacy Program
Help a child build confidence and a love for reading!
Every July, we host a free literacy camp for inner-city kids in Grades K–5. Volunteers help with reading circles, crafts, games, and mentorship — no teaching experience required. Just bring your energy and heart!

Operation Santa Claus & Christmas Tree of Hope
The holidays can be tough for families in need. That’s why Rotary steps up every December to collect and distribute toys to over 25 local children’s agencies.
🎄You can volunteer for:
- Toy Drives at Westdale Theatre or Lime Ridge Mall
- Gift Wrapping and Sorting Days
- Blitz Day Radiothon Support
- Packing Virtual Stockings for over 700 kids at Cathy Wever School
Help us make sure every child wakes up with something special on Christmas morning.
⛳ Rotary Fall Classic Golf Tournament
Our biggest fundraising event of the year happens every September! From sponsorships to player check-in to auction tables — we always need helping hands to keep the tournament swinging smoothly.
Funds raised support our Children’s Fund, Summer Literacy, Operation Santa Claus, and more.
Bingo Nights & Nevada Tickets – Fundraising with a Twist
Want a fun, social way to give back? Join our volunteer crew at Princess Bingo Centre or help us sell Nevada tickets. These events bring in essential dollars to support youth programs, literacy tools, and local families year-round.
Ready to Lend a Hand?
Whether you’re looking for a one-time opportunity or a long-term way to give back, there’s a place for you at Rotary Hamilton. We’re always looking for enthusiastic volunteers — students, families, retirees, professionals — everyone’s welcome.
