Rotary is the world’s oldest and most important service organization with over 1,200,000
members in more than 30,000 clubs spread throughout 160 countries. Rotary provides clean
water to those without it, feeds the hungry, battles crippling, debilitating, and disfiguring
diseases, and helps people to learn to read and write so they can compete in a modern
workplace. Rotarians are business and professional leaders who aspire to the highest ethical standards in their vocations and who not only help those in need in their own communities
but also seek to advance the cause of peace, understanding, and goodwill worldwide
through scholarships, youth and adult exchanges, and humanitarian projects.
