About Rotary

People of Action

Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.

Solving real problems takes real commitment and vision. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects. From literacy and peace to water and health, we are always working to better our world, and we stay committed to the end.

Our Causes

Peace and conflict prevention / resolution

Rotary fosters understanding across cultures. We train adults and young leaders to prevent and mediate conflict and help refugees who have fled dangerous areas.

Disease prevention and treatment

We are resolved to rid the world of polio forever. We also educate and equip communities to stop other diseases and expand access to health care.

Water and sanitation

We help bring sustainable clean water, sanitation, and hygiene to more people every day. We don’t just build wells and walk away.

Maternal and child health

We expand access to quality medical care, sanitation, education and economic opportunities so mothers and their children can live and grow stronger.

Basic education and literacy

Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.

Economic and community development

We carry out service projects that enhance economic and community development and create opportunities for decent and productive work for young and old.

Protecting the environment

We are committed to supporting activities that strengthen the conservation and protection of natural resources, advance ecological sustainability, and foster harmony between communities and the environment.
