District 5500
Rotarians are people of action. Rotary’s global network of more than 1.2 million neighbors, friends, and leaders volunteer their skills and resources to solve issues and address community needs.
Rotary District 5500 consists of over 50 clubs and more than 1,400 members in Southern Arizona. We are part of the 30 clubs that make up Zones 26 & 27 located in the western United States and Canada.
Service Above Self
Rotarians at the 1911 convention embraced an early version of our primary motto, Service Above Self. They also adopted an early version of our secondary motto, One Profits Most Who Serves Best.

A Message from our District Governor:
As we approach the close of this Rotary year, I find myself reflecting with gratitude on all we’ve accomplished together—and looking forward with excitement to what lies ahead. One project that has been quietly in the works throughout the year is now ready for its debut: our brand-new District website!
This new site represents more than just a fresh look. It’s a modern, streamlined platform that will better serve our clubs, members, and the broader community. Designed with usability, functionality, and future growth in mind, it will be a vital tool to help us communicate, collaborate, and celebrate the impact of Rotary across our District.
