Our History

The Rotary Club of Morningside has been meeting for over 30 years (the club was chartered on 2 July 1986). After much moving around from venue to venue, we have been comfortably settled at the Johannesburg Country Club for the past decade or so.

The Rotary Club of Johannesburg New Dawn was chartered on January 20, 2009, by the Rotary Club of Morningside, whose then President Adele Thomas inducted Rtn Don Lindsay as the club’s first President.

We have 22 active members and a number of projects which we support. We drive the Rotary Family Health Days held in October each year, and in 2019, almost 1000 people attended and were helped. The SANCA centre in Diepsloot was built by us and we remain intimately involved in its ongoing activities and success.
