About Us

Our momentum comes from our members.
 
St. Paul Rotary has a long history, but our energy is for the future. Our club values diversity in our membership, and it is reflected in our club leadership. St. Paul Rotary engages in current, relevant projects like ending human trafficking and working with St. Paul’s Rondo neighborhood. We were leaders in moving to a hybrid meeting format in response to the global pandemic. We can’t wait to add your energy to our legacy.
 
More than a century of service plus the power of YOU.
 
St. Paul Rotary strengthens our entire community and connects with the world through service, friendship and fun. We see a world where people unite to take action to create lasting change in St Paul, across the globe and in ourselves.

Our commitment to developing leaders includes Camp RYLA for high school students, which we founded in the 1950s. Our Centennial Scholarships have awarded more than $220,000 in college scholarships for St. Paul students.

Our global network includes an unprecedented 50 year history of cultural and student exchange with Nagasaki, Japan, as well as a generation of investments in Africa and South America.

Because we are diverse in culture and profession, we are able to serve the capital city with impactful programs and strong ethics.
 
We invite you to bring your leadership and passion to our purpose.

VISION OF PEACE
Gift of St Paul Rotary to the Nagasaki Rotary Club
St Paul artist Bill Hueg created an eight-foot bronze replicate of the Vision of Peace, the iconic sulpture that has stood in the St. Paul City Hall/Ramsey County Counthouse since 1936. 
(The memorial to the Minnesota 20th-century war dead was created by Swedish sculptor Carl Milles, who named it Indian God of Peace. He drew on memories of a Native American ceremony he witnessed in Ponca City, Oklahoma. Although there is no connection between Native American spirituality and his own vision, Milles depicted five Native Americans seated around a fire holding sacred pipes. Emerging from the smoke of those pipes is a "god of peace" which Milles imagined speaking to "all the world.”(
The bronze replica was installed at the entrance to the Nagasaki Peace Park and Nuclear Holocaust Museum in 2015.
