Rotary’s motto, SERVICE ABOVE SELF, is as valid for today as it was in 1911 when it was adopted. This Motto embodies the humanitarian spirit of the organisation and its members and supporters.
Rotary’s Avenues of Service guides its activities:
• Through Club Service, Rotarians have fun, build lasting friendships, and make sure that their club runs well.
• Through Vocational Service, Rotarians volunteer their vocational skills to serve others and promote integrity in everything they do.
• Through Community Service, Rotarians address local needs and work with their community to bring lasting improvements.
• Through International Service, Rotarians meet humanitarian needs around the globe and promote world understanding and peace.
• Through New Generations Service, Rotarians work with young people to help them become the next generation of leaders, visionaries, and peacemakers.
