Making a Positive Impact on the Community
The Rotary club of Northport is located on the scenic northern coast of Long Island, New York. We are an energetic community composed of a welcoming and passionate group of individuals, who raise funds and create initiatives that address the needs of various groups in need of assistance. With a blend of camaraderie, dedication, and impactful strategies, Northport Rotary exemplifies the true meaning of:

Soles4Soles
Northport Rotary and East Northport Rotary announce our 17th Annual Soles4Souls Shoe Drive, named for our founders, Anita and Bill Thomas. Anita and Bill led the way with an initial collection of 500 pairs of shoes at Gold’s Gym in East Northport to over 20,000 pairs in recent years. As Anita said: “What is most inspiring in this is the outpouring of community spirit, particularly from the children.” We are hoping for a strong response this year to honor Anita and Bill, lost to COVID-19.
We are now confirming box location sites that will include area schools, churches, businesses, Rotary clubs and other organizations. A full list of locations will be posted on our website, northportrotary.org, by March 1, 2026. Many thanks to Westy’s Self Storage on JerichoTurnpike in East Northport for their support during the drive again this year.
