Communities in Action: a Guide to Effective Service Projects
Rotary always benefits two people.  The child who is sick, who is hungry, who is thirsty, who has no clothes.  No shelter, no education, no future, no hope…that child is beneficiary of Rotary’s outreach.  That child is Rotary’s business.  But another benefit comes to the Rotarian-the one actually performing the service.  That person grows and fulfills the real reason for his or her existence, which is to serve others.
Past RI President Richard King

Time - Treasure - Talent Community Service, along with Youth Service, is probably what most Rotarians have in mind when they join Rotary to be of service.  Members, willing to donate there time, treasure and talents, are doing it for a reason.  There must be a personal benefit else it would not be worth doing.  Therefore it is important that we are selective in the projects that clubs undertake and make them meaningful, not only for the community served, but also for those that are serving, eg the Rotarian.   Here are some keys to creating successful projects:
1)  Find a need...then ask yourself
2)  Project Planning
3)  Quality vs quantity...remember you will be known by the work you do.
4)  Document, document, document.
5)  Share the victory
