In 2008-2009 the club won the District 7680 Gold Award for outstanding achievement in a group of areas established as priorities by the District Governor. In April of 2009, the club under the leadership of Becky Keenan and Chad Scott started a new fund raising activity called Bands Together. In 2011 over 20,000 meals were packaged for Stop Hunger Now. The Club was honored to receive the 2010-2011 District 7680 Gold Award.

Under the direction of Mike Walker, the club’s Rotary Foundation Chairman for 2010, the club entered into an International Matching Grant with the Rotary Club of Monrovia, Liberia. This two-year program funded teachers and supplies to the Hope School for the Deaf in Monrovia.

For 2011-2012 the club focus was on hunger, homeless, and education. The club also wanted more social interaction so we instigated happy hours. We completed our Liberia grant project that year, founding the first international school for the deaf in that country. We also sponsored an outbound student to the Philippines. The club was awarded a Gold Service Presidential Award that year.

An effort to change the club name to Charlotte Providence Rotary Club began in late 2012. Also, we received the "Presidential Citation" from Rotary International as well as being named a "Gold" level "Club of Excellence" by Rotary District 7680

The Rotary Club of Charlotte East changed its name to the Charlotte Providence Rotary Club in 2013- 2014. We joined with Charlotte End of the Week Rotary Club at our Oyster Roast and Fall Festival while packaging 30,000 meals for Stop Hunger Now partnering with companies such as Electrolux, Foodbuy and Andrew Roby Construction. We collaborated with two other Charlotte clubs (Charlotte North and South), as well as Virginia clubs and Friends of Barnabas Foundation in our "Little Hearts" Global Grant International Project to create and sustain the first ever Pediatric Cardiac Surgical Unit at Ruth Paz Hospital in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. As a partner of District 7680 and Trees Charlotte we planted 425 trees at Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School. We achieved 100% "Every Rotarian Every Year" participation with The Rotary Foundation and we received the Presidential Citation.

The year 2014-2015 brought many service projects such as serving lunch at Crisis Assistance Ministries, packing hand bags for Alexander Youth Network and packaging supplies for a local school with a high poverty rate. We again planted 425 trees with Trees Charlotte at a local school. By the end of mid-2015 we have planted six trees in honor of members Julian Culton, and Ben Smith, and also the late Jim Cochran, Jim Wilson, Coy Plott and Raleigh Delaney, wife of member Ben Delaney. In 2015-2026 we also planted trees in honor of Gray Hudson’s mother.

Under the leadership of president Mike Walker, our club excelled in many areas during the Rotary year 2015-2016. Most notably, Charlotte Providence Rotary Club was awarded the District Governor’s “Best of the Best” Award out of 58 other clubs in our district, a first for the club in its 48-year history to be awarded this prestigious honor. Of equal significance is the growth of our membership this year. With the generous financial incentives offered to new and existing members by Bill Keenan, the club recruited 10 new members, a record for us in a single year bringing total membership to 39. A sustainable fundraising project was undertaken by the club with the launch of a farmer’s market in the Cotswold area of Charlotte. The Cotswold Farmers’ Market (CFM) with Carolina Healthcare Systems as our first lead sponsor, opened to a bustling crowd and rave reviews on May 7, 2016, with 24 vendors and 19 sponsors, and will operate annually every Saturday morning during the summer months. The CFM vendors’ wares must be cultivated within a 100-mile radius of the market. The CFM includes cooking demonstrations, fun activities, and entertainment. After a two year hiatus, the annual Oyster Roast, BBQ, and Silent Auction, resurged in March 2016 and netted the club approximately $10,000.
