ROTARY

We are 1.2 million neighbors, friends, and professionals, united in the goal of bringing positive and lasting change to the communities where we live and to the world.

Coming from different cultures and countries and practicing the most diverse professions allows us to see reality from a multitude of perspectives. Our shared passion for service helps us achieve the impossible.

WHAT SETS US APART

The demographic diversity and the different disciplinary approaches of our members bring numerous advantages:

  • A different perspective: our interdisciplinarity helps us address problems in an innovative way.
  • A different way of thinking: by applying our leadership experience and skills to social issues, we are able to find effective solutions.
  • A sense of responsibility: enthusiasm and perseverance are the foundation of positive changes that last over time.
  • The desire to make a difference where we live and in the world: our members have both a local and international presence.

HOW WE OPERATE

At the forefront with constant commitment are our members, who work tirelessly with their clubs to try to solve some of society’s most dramatic problems. The work carried out locally by Rotarians is supported by Rotary International, the association of all clubs, and by The Rotary Foundation with grants funded by the donations received. These grants help support the service activities carried out by Rotary members and our partners worldwide. Rotary is led by members elected to leadership positions, who responsibly carry out the organization’s mission and values.
