1 This is Rotary

2 Rotary is an International Organization There are 527 Districts in 159 countries throughout the world. Our club, The Rotary Club of Vero Beach Sunrise is in District The District covers southeastern Florida from Titusville to Boca Raton including Okeechobee.

3 Rotary International is governed by a president and a board of directors elected from all over the world. President K.R. Ravi Eugene B. Gene Burkett District 6930 Governor Ravindran from Sri Lanka Annually each District elects a District Governor - But each District is an autonomous group.

4 In the beginning Rotary Founder Paul Harris The first Rotary Club was organized in Chicago in 1905, by Paul P. Harris. The club, with four members, met in rotation at the offices of the members - thus the name Rotary. There are currently over 34,000 clubs with over 1.2 million members.

5 Women in Rotary In 1987 women were admitted to Rotary. Today women have served as presidents and District Governors including our own club member, Dr. Laile Fairbairn. In 2013 Anne L. Matthews began her term as the first woman to serve as RI vice president.

6 Service Above Self Rotary was not long to recognize that fellowship alone would not keep a group together there needed to be a purpose. First project was public washrooms in downtown Chicago. Rotary became the world s first service club. We began our fight against polio in 1979 to immunize 6 million children in the Philippines. By 2012, only three countries remain polioendemic down from 125 in 1988.

7 The Rotary Wheel The first design was a simple wagon wheel, was said to illustrate "Civilization and Movement." In 1923, the present gear wheel, with 24 cogs, six spokes and a "keyway" in the center of the gear to attach it to a power shaft, was formally adopted as the official Rotary International emblem.

8 The Four-Way Test Herbert J. Taylor authored the four-way test in the midst of the Great Depression as an ethical guideline for his company. His four department heads: a Catholic, a Christian Scientist, an Orthodox Jew and a Presbyterian, all agreed that it s principles coincided with their religious beliefs and provided an exemplary guide for personal and business life. In 1943 the Test was adopted by RI and is today considered a vital element in all four Avenues of Service.

9 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 GOOD WILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

10 Classifications A classification describes the principal activity of the Rotarian. The classification principle helps clubs achieve a more diverse representation of their communities. Each active member of a Rotary club is classified by his or her current or former business, profession, or type of community service The reason for classifications is to ensure a well-balanced club with members of many vocations.

11 The Rotary Foundation World Peace through Understanding

12 The Rotary Foundation

As the charitable arm of Rotary, we tap into a global network of Rotarians who invest their time, money, and expertise into our priorities, such as eradicating polio and promoting peace.

14 Foundation Grants Foundation grants empower Rotarians to approach challenges such as poverty, illiteracy, and malnutrition with sustainable solutions that leave a lasting impact.
