Building a Legacy of Service Since 1937

The Rotary Club of Milledgeville was chartered on November 12, 1937, through the leadership of Porter Carswell and a group of visionary community leaders dedicated to bringing Rotary’s mission of service, leadership, and fellowshipto Milledgeville. These charter members—business owners, professionals, educators, and civic leaders—laid the foundation for what would become a thriving organization committed to making a lasting impact in our local community and beyond.

Their commitment to “Service Above Self” has shaped our club’s values and traditions, inspiring generations of Rotarians to follow in their footsteps. We honor their legacy and the remarkable contributions they made to both Rotary and Milledgeville.
