SERVICE ABOVE SELF  
ABOUT ROTARY

Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.  

There are over 32,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and 26 clubs in Hampton Roads. Clubs are nonpolitical, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. As signified by the motto Service Above Self, Rotary’s main objective is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world.

Although Rotary clubs develop autonomous service programs, all Rotarians are united in a unique global campaign to eradicate polio.
