The Object Of Rotary


The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy
enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

FIRST. The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;

SECOND. High ethical standards in business and professions, the recognition of the
worthiness of all useful occupations, and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an
opportunity to serve society;

THIRD. The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian's personal, business and
community life;

FOURTH. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a
world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
