About Rotary

Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who come together to make positive, lasting change in communities at home and abroad. 

 

Rotary is organized into Rotary Clubs located in cities and communities worldwide. Rotary also has e-Clubs whose members meet online to promote Rotary's mission.
