What Is Rotary?

Founded in Chicago in 1905, Rotary has for more than 110 years brought together professionals and community leaders as “people of action” who use their experience and knowledge for community service and humanitarian work. To create lasting change in areas such as literacy, peacebuilding, and water and sanitation, Rotary members are taking action somewhere in the world every day.
