The mission of Rotary International, a worldwide association of Rotary clubs, is to provide service to others, to promote high ethical standards, and to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through its fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders.
The Rotary motto Service Above Self conveys the humanitarian spirit of the organization’s more than 1.2 million members worldwide. Strong fellowship among Rotarians and meaningful community and international service projects characterize Rotary worldwide.
Individual Rotary clubs belong to Rotary International. Individual members, or Rotarians, belong to a club. The club is where most of Rotarians' meaningful service work is carried out. Clubs can be engaged not only in their communities, but also internationally. What Rotarians get out of Rotary depends largely on what they put into it.
Our club has been involved in many projects, both locally and internationally. We have also supported many community services as well as education through our scholarship program. Visit our Projects page for a listing of our involvement.
Rotary International recognizes the value of diversity within individual clubs. Rotary encourages clubs to assess those in their communities who are eligible for membership, under existing membership guidelines, and to endeavor to include the appropriate range of individuals in their clubs. A club that reflects its community with regard to professional and business classification, gender, age, religion, and ethnicity is a club with the key to its future.
If you are service minded and you are looking to give something back to the world and local community, consider the Rotary Club of Grand Island.
