The Object of Rotary

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster service as the basis of worthy enterprise by:
  • Developing fellowship as an opportunity for service to members;
  • Encouraging high ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an opportunity to serve society;
  • Applying the ideal of service in each Rotarian's personal, business, and community life;
  • Advancing international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a global fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
Four "avenues" of service in Rotary reflect the elements of this Object: Club Service, Vocational Service, Community Service, and International Service.
