We want a world where people work together to create lasting positive change in the world, in their communities and within themselves.
Founded in Chicago in 1905, for more than 110 years, Rotary has brought people from all walks of life and civic leaders into action to change the world, applying their experience and knowledge to community service and humanitarian causes. I've been working on it.Somewhere in the world every day, Rotary members are working to create sustainable impact in areas as diverse as literacy, peacebuilding, and water and sanitation.
