Reasons to join Rotary International

Friendship

In an increasingly complex world, Rotary provides one of the most basic human needs: the need for friendship and fellowship. It is one of two reasons why Rotary began in 1905.

Business Development

The second original reason for Rotary’s beginning is business development. Everyone needs to network. Rotary consists of a cross section of every business community. Its members come from all walks of life. Rotarians help each other.

Personal Growth and Development

Membership in Rotary continues one’s growth and education in human relations and personal development.

Leadership Development

Rotary is an organisation of leaders and successful people. Serving in Rotary positions is like a college education. Leadership: learning how to motivate, influence and lead leaders.

Citizenship in the Community

Membership in a Rotary club makes you a better community citizen. The average Rotary club consists of the most active citizens of any community.

Continuing Education

Rotary meetings are designed to keep one informed about what is going on in the community, nation and world. Each meeting provides an opportunity to listen to different speakers and a variety of timely topics.

Fun

Rotary is fun, a lot of fun. Each meeting is fun. The club projects are fun. Social activities are fun. The service is fun.

Public Speaking Skills

Many individuals who joined Rotary were afraid to speak in public. Rotary develops confidence and skill in public communication and the opportunity to practice and perfect these skills

Long time Rotarians agree that involvement is key to getting the most out of membership. Volunteer to serve on a committee that meets your interests, to be a greeter for fortnightly club meetings, or to join a service project team will help you get to know your fellow club members and better understand the work of Rotary.
