Livermore Valley Rotary Club Turns 40

We are proud to be celebrating 40 years of Service Above Self, fellowship, and community! Established on May 31, 1985, we have been improving lives locally and globally through service, grants, scholarships, and partnerships with other giving organizations in the Livermore area.

Special thanks to Livermore Mayor John Marchand and State Senator Jerry McNerney for joining our meeting to honor our achievement.

Monthly Socials on the Last Tuesday

Our 2025-26 Rotary Year promises monthly opportunities for fun and fellowship! Each month, on the last Tuesday of the month, instead of meeting in the morning, we will meet in the evening at a local establishment. This is a great way to get to know fellow club members, introduce guests to Rotary, and enjoy the added benefit of sleeping in that Tuesday morning!

Check out our Events Page for details for each month's event.

Our Club Joins RFL in Awarding Community Grants

Sharing the Gift of Reading

Members of our club joined with other Rotarians in Livermore to participate in the Rotarian Foundation of Livermore's Annual Gift of Reading project. Each of the 969 third graders in the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District received a new, hardcover literature novel thanks to the generosity of RFL.

This year, in partnership with Towne Center Books, RFL invited students to choose their favorite of three titles selected by 3rd grade teachers and the Elementary Library Specialists. In February, students came to their libraries to learn about the choices and selected either The One and Only Ivan, by Katherine Applegate, Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom, by Louis Sachar, or The Wild Robot, by Peter Brown.

Kevin Drake Scholarship Launched

Honoring Kevin Drake for his legacy of service in the Livermore community, and in support of education, the Rotary Club of Livermore Valley has donated $10,000 to launch a scholarship in Kevin Drake’s name. The scholarship will be offered through the Pedrozzi Foundation to students graduating from any of the public high schools in Livermore.

“Our hope is to fully endow this scholarship by raising $100,000, so that students will benefit from this gift in perpetuity,” said Dave Bedford. The Livermore community is invited to donate to the fund at P edrozziFoundation.org.
