Ludlow Rotary Club Honored with Club Excellence Award
Ludlow Rotary Club Honored with Club Excellence Award

The Rotary Club of Ludlow was presented with the Club Excellence Award at the Rotary District 7890 Foundation Luncheon on Sunday, November 1, 2026.

The Club Excellence Award recognizes clubs in District 7890 that show outstanding performance in service, member engagement, and support of The Rotary Foundation. It is given to clubs that put Rotary’s core values of Service, Fellowship, Diversity, and Integrity into practice.

Club President Tony Sanches accepted the award on behalf of the club.

“This recognition belongs to every member of the Ludlow Rotary Club,” said President Sanches. “An award like this cannot be accomplished without our members and their dedication. Their time, energy, and generosity drive everything we do, from our community service projects to the fellowship that keeps us together. I’m proud to accept it on their behalf.”

Club Supports the Ludlow Veterans Food Pantry with Cash and Food Donations

The Ludlow Rotary Club was pleased to welcome Eric Segundo, Director of the Ludlow Veterans Center, as a guest speaker at a recent meeting. Eric gave members an eye-opening look at the scope of food insecurity facing local veterans and their families, and at the remarkable work being done right here in Ludlow to meet that need.

The numbers Eric shared were striking. From January through August 2026, the Ludlow Veterans Food Pantry distributed 112,000 pounds of food, serving 1,800 households. Put in dollar terms, that represents roughly $484,000 worth of food returned to our community in just eight months.

Rotary Club of Ludlow Earns Rotary International's Club Excellence Award

LUDLOW, MA — The Rotary Club of Ludlow has been honored with the 2025-26 Club Excellence Award from Rotary International, the highest recognition a Rotary club can receive, for its service, growth, and commitment to the community it calls home.

The award, signed by Rotary International President Francesco Arezzo and Rotary Foundation Trustee Chair Holger Knaack, recognizes the club "for fostering a positive experience for its members and reflecting the values of Rotary." Fewer than a small fraction of Rotary's more than 46,000 clubs worldwide earn this distinction in a given year. Clubs qualify only by setting ambitious goals across membership, service, Rotary Foundation giving, youth programs, and public image at the start of the Rotary year, and then actually achieving them and reporting the results to Rotary International.

"This award belongs to every member of our club and to the entire Ludlow community," said Tony Sanches, President of the Rotary Club of Ludlow. "Our members show up, roll up their sleeves, and get to work. Rotary International noticed what Ludlow already knows: this is a club that delivers for its neighbors."

Epic Day of Service

EPIC Day of Service – Ludlow Clean Up Day

May 2, 2026

On Saturday morning, Ludlow showed once again what community pride looks like in action. Despite cool spring air and a busy weekend across town, volunteers gathered at Veterans Memorial Park for the annual Town-Wide Community Clean Up Day, held in partnership with the Town of Ludlow, the VFW, American Legion, Ludlow Police Department, and local civic groups. This year’s event also served as the Rotary EPIC Day of Service, connecting our club to thousands of Rotarians across the country participating in hands-on service projects on the same day.
