Four Avenues of Service
Club Service focuses on strengthening
fellowship and ensuring the smooth
functioning of Rotary clubs. Learn about
effective club service in Membership and
Training.
Vocational Service involves club members
serving others through their professions
and aspiring to high ethical standards.
Rotarians, as business leaders, share
skills and expertise through their vocations,
and they inspire others in the process.
Community Service is the opportunity
Rotary clubs have to implement club
projects and activities that improve life in
the local community.
International Service encompasses efforts
to expand Rotary’s humanitarian reach
around the world and to promote world
understanding and peace. It includes
everything from contributing to PolioPlus to
helping Rotary Youth Exchange students
adjust to their host countries.
