Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who come together to make positive, lasting change in communities at home and abroad.

From literacy and peace to water and health, we are always working to make our world a better place. One Rotarian at a time. We stay committed to the end.
