The Rotary Club of Accra South (RCAS) was born on 8th August 2000 after a long and arduous 2-year labor. The Club had been a provisional one for almost 2 years prior to its charter. The words of DG Representative, PP Edwin Sam, could not have rung truer when, in his congratulatory message to the club during our charter, he emphasized the fact that “… I know the trying times we went through together to arrive at this point. I believe that this has helped to build resilience in the Club.” Ne’er a truer word spoken! Like any enterprise borne out of diligence and determination, our Club is presently a vibrant, dynamic club. Members of RCAS are not merely members of a Rotary Club: they are true Rotarians!
The Rotary Club of Accra-South was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Accra-East under the direct mentorship of PP Edwin Sam, then District Governor’s Representative. The Rotary theme for the 2000-01 year of our charter – Create Awareness, Take Action.
On August 8, 2000, our Club was added to the family of Rotary in Ghana.The Club’s Charter Night ball was held on Friday, March 23, 2001 at the Conference Hall of the Trade Fair Site after 2 years of being a provisional Club. In attendance was the then District Governor (DG) Batio Joseph Bassole, Rotarian President for the Rotary Club of Accra-East (RP) David Ofosu-Dorte, DG Rep PP Edwin Sam and our Club Charter President (CP) Tony Lithur.
