The Rotary Club of Tampa

The Rotary Club of Tampa formed in Tampa in 1914 and currently has 160 members representing the local business community. Rotary members and the public are invited to attend our event. Proceeds from the Gasparilla Bash benefit local charities that partner with the Rotary Club of Tampa Foundation.

The Rotary Club of Tampa Foundation partners with several local organizations each year, and the proceeds from the 2019 event allowed us to provide grants to these organizations, among others:

​

• Boys & Girls Clubs of Tampa Bay

• Cigar Family Charitable Foundation 

• Cristo Rey Tampa High School

• Frameworks    

• Girl Scouts of West Central Florida 

• Rotary's Camp Florida   

• The Salvation Army   

• Starting Right, Now         

• St. Joseph's Children's Hospital
