Rotary Charleston-Breakfast is a dynamic group of men and women in business devoted to Service Above Self. We meet every Friday from 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM at the Harbour Club in Downtown Charleston. In addition, we perform many community service activities together including Rotary Reader, cooking breakfast at Crisis Ministries, delivering dictionaries to schools, serving lunch at the annual Charleston Special Olympics and many more activities. But it’s not all work – we have several socials throughout the year including harbor cruises, pig pickin’s and holiday parties. We welcome guests so come visit and see what Rotary is all about!
