CALLING ALL COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS TO GAVE ONE DAY TO YOUR TOWN!

SAVE THE DATE: SATURDAY, MAY 17, 2025

On Saturday, May 17, 2025, Rotary Southern Connecticut invites you to be part of a global movement of action, impact, and unity. This EPIC Day of Service will unite more than 2,500 Rotary clubs and 75,000 Rotarians, community volunteers, and partners across the globe in a single day dedicated to making the world a better place.

From bustling city centers to remote rural areas, the EPIC Day of Service is a call to action for people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures to come together and tackle some of the most pressing issues facing our communities. Through thousands of coordinated acts of service, this day will demonstrate the true power of collective goodwill and service above self.

A Day That Spans the Globe

Whether it’s cleaning up miles of ocean beaches, restoring riverbanks, beautifying local parks, or planting community gardens, every effort will leave a tangible, positive mark. In urban neighborhoods, volunteers will collect clothing for the homeless, distribute books to families with limited access to literacy resources, and prepare warm meals for individuals facing food insecurity. In rural areas, teams will repair schools, build playgrounds, and bring hope to underserved populations through acts of care and compassion.

Every project—big or small—will contribute to a mosaic of impact that transcends borders, cultures, and languages.

Why May 17th Will Matter

The EPIC Day of Service isn’t just about volunteering; it’s about creating lasting change. By mobilizing our members in the communities we serve, we aim to:

  • Inspire others to take action in their own lives and communities.
  • Empower local leaders to continue the work long after the day ends.
  • Build connections among Rotarians, volunteers, and community organizations.
  • Amplify Rotary’s message of service and commitment to peace, health, education, and sustainability.

Every person who participates will help transform this ambitious vision into a global reality.

How You Can Get Involved

  • Volunteer: Find a project near you or start one with your local Rotary club.

  • Donate: Support projects financially to ensure they have the resources needed to succeed.

  • Share Your Impact: Use social media to highlight your participation and spread the word. Use the hashtag #EPICDayOfService to share your story.
