Rotary Values

Service begins with how we treat people

Rotary connects people through service, fellowship and a commitment to integrity. Members bring different backgrounds and perspectives to the shared work of helping others.

The Four-Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do:
1. Is it the TRUTH?
2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

These questions offer a practical way to reflect on decisions, relationships and service.

Local action and a wider perspective

A Rotary club is a place to build relationships in your community while learning about humanitarian needs beyond it. Explore Rotary International and Rotary’s global work to end polio. These are worldwide Rotary efforts; individual club participation varies.

Put your values into practice

If service and integrity matter to you, begin by getting to know the people in your local club. Arrange a visit or explore membership.
