A lot of people have the wrong idea about Rotary.
I did too before I got involved.
I thought it was mostly formal meetings, networking, and older professionals sitting around lunch tables.
What I found instead were good people… real friendships… meaningful conversations… opportunities to serve… and experiences that genuinely change lives — including your own.
Rotary isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about showing up, getting involved, and trying to make a difference.
And honestly, we need more of that right now. 💙💛

One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.
This 24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways.

Life is a journey… and sometimes the road ahead isn’t always clear. There are detours, potholes, unexpected adventures and the occasional flat tire. But every now and then, you discover something that changes the direction of your life forever.

For me, Rotary has been one of those journeys.

It started with a trip to England sponsored by my local Rotary Club. Women were not eligible for membership at that time, but I knew that if the opportunity ever came up, I wanted to join. Lo and behold that time came in 1997. About 6 months after the US Supreme Court ruling allowing women to join Rotary in the United States, I was invited to become a member. Since then, I have been a member of 8 different clubs - wherever my career took me.

Rotary might take you across the globe, or just across the road to help someone who needs it most. It might challenge you, inspire you, frustrate you occasionally (because we are human after all 😂) but it will absolutely change you.

The beautiful thing is, no two Rotary journeys look the same.

So the question is...

Where will the Rotary journey take you?
