2024 Lombardi Award Festivities
The Rotary Club of Houston doesn't just hand out a 40 pound tropy each year. The proceeds of each ticket or table sold goes to benefit cancer research and additionally, part of that is to educate and promote the efforts of those on the front lines in the fight against cancer.

The primary focus at the Rotary House is our extraordinary service to our hotel guests. All of our hosts are unique individuals who have a genuine and compassionate personality to care for patients, caregivers, and their family members. The Rotary House's purpose is modest and singularly focused on making each guest feel completely comfortable and in a home away from home.
