Rotary’s Four Avenues of Service

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service to others as a basis of worthy enterprise.

Rotary fosters the development of professional associations as an opportunity to serve those in need.

Rotary expects high ethical standards in business and professions.

Rotary encourages each Rotarian to apply service in their personal, business, and community life.

Rotary seeks to advance international understanding and goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.

Rotarians use a Four-Way Test for things we think, say or do.

  1. Is it the TRUTH?
  2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
  3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
  4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
