Westlake Rotary History
The Westlake Rotary, also known as the Rotary Club of Austin Westlake, has been serving the Westlake Hills, Rollingwood, and Eanes ISD community in Austin since 1982. Our club is comprised of business leaders, philanthropists, entrepreneurs, civic leaders, professionals, and retirees from the local community.
We sponsor various causes and projects ranging from supporting literacy for foster children, disaster relief, local teacher recognition and awards, scholarships, youth leadership, and polio eradication…and that was just last year.
