What
is Rotary?
Rotary
is a global network of community volunteers. Rotary members
are business and professional leaders who provide humanitarian
service, encourage high ethical standards, and help build
goodwill and peace in the world. Some 31,000 Rotary clubs
in more than 165 countries carry out service projects in
their local communities and abroad to address such critical
issues as poverty, health, hunger, illiteracy, and the environment.
Rotary
clubs participate in a broad range of humanitarian, intercultural,
and educational activities designed to improve the human
condition. Rotary’s humanitarian grants support club
projects that provide health care and medical supplies,
clean water, food, job training, youth development, and
education to millions of people in need — particularly
in the developing world. In addition, Rotary provides more
than 200 grants each year to fund the work of Rotary volunteers,
who travel to parts of the world where their technical expertise
and knowledge are most needed to alleviate hardship and
solve problems.
