Goals

The Sertoma Club of Fishers is a chapter of the non-profit National Sertoma organization.   The organization’s Mission Statement reads:  “Sertoma exists for the high and noble purpose of Service to Mankind by communication of thoughts, ideas and concepts to accelerate human progress in health, education, freedom and democracy.”

Our Fishers Sertoma Chapter is celebrating its 10 year anniversary in 2011!  As a non-profit organization, we provide financial and physical support to a vast array of causes and organizations within Hamilton County and surrounding counties.   Our most recent activities include sponsoring and awarding $500 to the Freedom Essay Contest winners for participating Hamilton County schools.  We’ve also donated over $5000 to such organizations as Prevail, an advocacy group for victims of crime and abuse, as well as to Lutheran Child and Family Services which provides care and counseling to enhance the dignity and quality of life of those in need.  The hearing- impaired are also primary recipients of Sertoma activities and fundraising.

Our overall goal for 2011-2012 is to increase our membership in order to expand our donating efforts and to broaden our reach to more local interests and businesses.

Are you recently retired or find yourself with some free time that you would like to spend in service to others?  If so, and you have an interest in learning what it means to be a member of the Fishers Sertoma,  please join us for lunch at the Pizza Hut Restaurant at 11722 Allisonville Road at noon on the 2^nd or 4^th Wednesday of every month.  You will have the opportunity to meet current and prospective Sertoma members, hear interesting speakers, enjoy lunch on us and learn what Service to Mankind is all about.  We look forward to having you at our next meeting!  For further questions or information please see us on Facebook.
