  3. Object of Rotary • To encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise through: • the dignifying by each Rotarian of his or her occupation as an opportunity to serve society • the application of the ideal of service by every Rotarian to his or her personal, business and community life • the advancement of international understanding, good will, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional people united in the ideal of service

  5. Club Service • focuses on strengthening fellowship and ensuring the smooth functioning of Rotary clubs

  6. Vocational Service • involves club members serving others through their professions and aspiring to high ethical standards

  7. Community Service • the opportunity Rotary clubs have to implement club projects and activities that improve life in the local community.

  10. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do A Rotarian’s simple, four-part ethical guideline, in the 1930’s, helped him rescue a beleaguered business. The principles became an ethical compass embraced by Rotary International in 1943. Today, the Four-Way Test stands as one of the organization’s hallmarks.

  11. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIRto all concerned? 3. Will it build GOODWILLand BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIALto all concerned?

  12. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do Is it sophisticated enough to guide business and professional men and women in these fast-paced times? Is it the TRUTH? There is a timelessness in truth that is unchangeable. Truth cannot exist without justice.

  13. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do Is it FAIRto all concerned? The substitution of fairness for the harsh principles of doing business at arm’s length has improved rather than hurt business relationships.

  14. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do Will it build GOODWILLand BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? Man is by nature a cooperative creature and it is his natural instinct to express love.

  15. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do Will it be BENEFICIALto all concerned? This question eliminates the dog-eat-dog principle of ruthless competition and substitutes the idea of constructive and creative competition.

  16. THE FOUR-WAY TESTof the things we think, say or do Is it sophisticated enough to guide business and professional men and women in these fast-paced times? The Four-Way Test is international, transcending national boundaries and language barriers. It knows no politics, dogma or creed. More than a code of ethics, it has all the ingredients for a successful life in every way. It can and will work in today’s society.

  17. The Rotary Foundation(TRF) The mission of TRF is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.

  18. The Rotary Foundation The Foundation's programs are funded through dues and voluntary contributions from Rotarians and others who believe in its mission. Contributions are transformed into programs distributed worldwide through the SHARE system.

  19. The Rotary Foundation Annually, 50% of each district's (includes individual’s & club’s) donations to the Annual Programs Fund are credited to their District Designated Fund (DDF) Districts use their DDF to fund the Foundation programs they (including local clubs) participate in

  20. The Rotary Foundation Annually, the other 50 % is credited to the World Fund The Foundation uses the World Fund to pay for the worldwide programs available to all Rotary districts, regardless of their specific contributions

  21. The Rotary Foundation Since 1947, Rotarians have contributed almost US $2.7 billion to The Rotary Foundation to help Rotary do good in the world. Annual dues from 1.2 million members worldwide help finance Rotary programs.

  22. The Rotary Foundation Funding cycle The Rotary Foundation has a unique funding cycle that uses donations for programs three years after they’re received The three-year cycle gives districts time for planning and provides for the Foundation’s operational costs to come, primarily, from the interest earned from contribution investments

  23. Rotary Foundation’s largest single charitable effort to date. The bold initiative – to rid the world of polio – began in 1985. With Rotary funding and the help of other International Organizations it is happening! Polio Plus

  24. Contribute to Rotary's $200 Million Challenge Rotary's US $200 Million Challenge is the Rotary Foundation's response to the two grants totalling $355 million from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to help eradicate polio. Every dollar given to PolioPlus will be counted toward the $200 million match, which must be completed by 30 June 2012. Polio Plus
