More Information about RotaryThe world's first service club, the Rotary Club of Chicago, Illinois, USA, was formed on February 23, 1905 by Paul P. Harris, an attorney who wished to recapture in a professional club the same friendly spirit he had felt in the small towns of his youth. The name "Rotary" derived from the early practice of rotating meetings among members' offices. Rotary's popularity spread throughout the United States in the decade that followed; clubs were chartered from San Francisco to New York. By 1921, Rotary clubs had been formed on six continents, and the organization adopted the name Rotary International a year later. As Rotary grew, its mission expanded beyond serving the professional and social interests of club members. Rotarians began pooling their resources and contributing their talents to help serve communities in need. Rotarians work to meet the changing needs of society, expanding its service efforts to address such pressing issues as environmental degradation, illiteracy, world hunger and children at risk. Most notably, in 1985 Rotary made the committment to immunize all of the world's children against polio. Since that time, more than one billion children worldwide have been immunized and Rotarians have contributed half a billion dollars to the cause. The organization's dedication to this ideal is best expressed in its principal motto: Service Above Self. To learn more about Rotary please visit www.RotaryInternational.org |
