•FOURTH. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service. Avenues of Service
For years, Rotary’s commitment to Service Above Self has been channelled through the Avenues of Service, which form the foundation of club activity.
•Club Service focuses on strengthening fellowship and ensuring the effective functioning of the club. Learn about effective club service in Membership and Training .
•Vocational Service encourages Rotarians to serve others through their vocations and to practice high ethical standards.
•Community Service covers the projects and activities the club undertakes to improve life in its community.
•International Service encompasses actions taken to expand Rotary’s humanitarian reach around the globe and to promote world understanding and peace.
