A community of leaders, professionals, and friends committed to lasting impact — meeting since 1972 at the Maadi Yacht Club, on the banks of the Nile.
The Rotary Club of Cairo South was chartered in 1972 on a simple conviction — that a small group of committed people, meeting regularly over good company and good ideas, can change the shape of a community. More than fifty years on, that conviction has only deepened.
We meet on Sunday evenings at the Maadi Yacht Club, on the banks of the Nile, in a city whose history stretches back five thousand years and whose future is being written every day. Our members are doctors, engineers, lawyers, business owners, educators, and public servants — drawn together by the Rotary motto: Service Above Self.
From health initiatives to literacy programs in our own neighbourhood, from international youth exchanges to the Explore Egypt program that has welcomed Rotarians from around the world — every project carries the same intent: lasting impact, built on lasting friendships.
Our members represent the full breadth of Cairo's professional life — physicians, engineers, lawyers, business leaders, educators, and public servants — bound by friendship and the Rotary motto, Service Above Self. Members are listed alphabetically.
For more than half a century the Rotary Club of Cairo South has carried out service work across Egypt. The projects below are the club's signature, ongoing initiatives — together they touch tens of thousands of lives a year, from village schools to operating rooms, from prosthetic limbs to children's smiles.
A flagship initiative of the Rotary Club of Cairo South — welcoming Rotarians from around the world, with their friends and guests, to discover the land of the Pharaohs.
We invite you to take part in Explore Egypt, organised by the Rotary Club of Cairo South, which welcomes fellow Rotarians from around the world, together with their friends and guests, to discover the country that has shaped civilization itself.
This initiative aims to introduce Rotarians to Egypt not as ordinary tourists but as guests of fellow club members — through stories of history and heritage, in the true spirit of Rotary Fellowship.
Archaeology, faith, and the Nile come together at the meeting place of three continents, where the legacy of the Pharaohs, the splendour of Coptic and Islamic Cairo, and the desert silences of Fayoum create a setting unlike any other in the world.
We look forward to sharing this memorable experience of culture, history, and friendship with you.
To share with fellow Rotarians the oldest civilization on earth — home to one of the original Seven Wonders of the World, and a living link to five thousand years of human history.
Every itinerary contributes to the service projects of the Rotary Club of Cairo South — medical convoys, cleft and burn reconstruction, and the work yet to come.
By employing local drivers and Egyptologist guides directly — without intermediaries — we ensure that fair wages reach the people who do the work, in the spirit of ethical tourism.
Each visit is an opportunity to build lasting friendships between Cairo South and Rotary clubs around the world — the foundation on which Rotary itself is built.
Whether you're a prospective member, a fellow Rotarian visiting Egypt, a partner organization, or a journalist — we'd be glad to hear from you.
