The Rotary Club of Michigan City presents the Service Above Self Awards to first responders, an educator, and a JROTC student every year to recognize those in the community who embody the club’s motto of “Service Above Self.”

“Rotarians around the world adhere to this motto and we appreciate others who also prioritize service to the community,” said Marty Corley, Rotary award committee chair. “The individuals we are recognizing this year have gone above and beyond to serve through volunteerism, humanitarian work, and commitment to helping others through their profession.”

This event is sponsored by General Insurance Services.

A different guest speaker attends each meeting, and the club completes several service projects throughout the year. Guests are welcome to attend club meetings.
