Since its charter in 1970, the Rotary Club of JFK International Airport has become one of JFK Airport’s leading local service organizations. It is comprised of local business, airline, and professional people who work within the JFK Airport community and share the same common principles, which have guided Rotarians throughout the world since Rotary’s founding in 1905. Rotary’s primary commitment to “Service Above Self” is practiced through the four avenues of service: vocational, international, community and to the club.
The funds raised from the "JFK Rotary Club ~ 5K Run on the Runway" have been used to support organizations such as The Gift of Life International Inc.; They sponsor terminally ill children from countries with limited medical and technological services, for life-saving heart operations., Futures in Education Scholarship Program; They assist families with limited resources in getting the help they need for their children to dream beyond the horizon of their difficulties. The Mill Neck Manor School for the Deaf; They enhance the quality of life for people who are Deaf, or who have other special communication needs, through excellence in individually designed educational, vocational or spiritual programs and services, and other local and international charities.
