Our Projects
Rotary House
Burnett Bayland
Named after Burnett Bayland, a former Houston Mayor and esteemed member of the club, this project has become a cornerstone of Rotary's efforts to preserve and enhance the natural beauty of the Houston area. Through this initiative, the Rotary Club of Houston has played a key role in preserving and restoring wetlands and green spaces in the Bayland area, promoting biodiversity, enhancing water quality, and providing recreational opportunities for the community.
International Projects
Hearts for Children
Youth Professional Development
Recognizing the importance of second chances, we also extend outreach to those incarcerated through our Fresh Start program, offering support and resources for successful reintegration into society.
Lombardi Award
In addition to our ongoing projects and initiatives, the Rotary Club of Houston proudly hosts the Lombardi Award, an esteemed recognition honoring college football linemen or linebackers in the United States who embody the values of integrity, perseverance, and teamwork. Named after the legendary football coach Vince Lombardi, this award celebrates excellence both on and off the field.
Since its founding in 1970, the Lombardi Award has been instrumental in the fight against cancer. Over a million dollars have been raised through its efforts to support vital cancer research.
