Rotary Club of Mumbai Mahim was established on 26th June 2002, with Rtn. Vishwas Kale from Rotary Club of Mumbai Sion entrusted with the responsibility of forming the new club. It is an association of like-minded professionals dedicated to serving the less fortunate, setting aside time, money, and resources to contribute positively to society. The club started with 18 members and has grown to 62. Unique in its approach, RCMM holds breakfast meetings on Saturdays at AOTS Hall, Wadala.
The club places special emphasis on youth development, offering opportunities to become responsible citizens and valuable contributors to society. In line with this philosophy, RCMM successfully established the Rotaract Club at Ramnarain Ruia College in 2012, the only Indian college with a ’College of Excellence’ status by the UGC. Another Rotaract Club, King’s Circle Matunga, primarily comprising students from ICT (formerly UDCT), was chartered on 24th December, 2015. The club has also been actively involved with schools, forming the Interact Club at Matunga Premier School in September 2017, followed by Chhatrapati Shivaji Vidyalaya in Dharavi, officially recognized on 10th December, 2022, with its leadership installed on 12th April 2023. In 2024, another Interact Club was established at Dadar Vidya Mandir, a school RCMM has supported for over five years, receiving its charter on 30th April 2024.
The club has also been involved in ROTAL, initially in collaboration with Thane Club in 2014-15 and 2015-16, later successfully leading the event under Rtn. Anand Limaye. After two years of ROTAL being conducted by RC Mumbai Parleshwar, RCMM resumed its role as Lead Host Club in 2024-25, led by Rtns. Varsha and Vidula.
RCMM has transformed lives through 272 successful pediatric heart surgeries and over 100 cataract operations under the ‘Cataract Free Palghar’ initiative, providing vital medical care to those in need.
RCMM received the Gold Club classification in 2018-19 for its exceptional performance and contributions to TRF. The club has earned multiple prestigious awards, including the PDG Madhukar Deodhar Trophy for Best Bulletin (for clubs up to 75 members), the Mumbai Midwest Trophy for Maximum Women Members, and Best Bulletin in Rotary District 3141. In 2019-20, RCMM was honored with the Platinum Citation for strengthening Rotary’s global connections. On 8th September 2020, RCMM became the parent club for RC Mumbai Elite. Under the leadership of PP Kishore Parulekar, the club secured third place for aggregate value and project reporting on ROTARYINDIA.ORG. In 2022-23, RCMM was the Runner-up for Best Club Bulletin, Mahim Waves. The Incredible Year 2023-24 saw the club receive a special trophy for the ‘Madhali Sutti’ youth project, along with another Platinum Citation for outstanding contributions to Rotary’s mission.
