Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders from more than 200 countries & geographical areas. Rotarians dedicate their time, energy & passion as well as provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. 

Rotary 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 by uniting leaders from all continents, cultures, and occupations to exchange ideas and take action in communities around the world.

By turning conversations into actions, connecting like minded people & partnering both business & community organisations, Rotarians for over a 100 years have accepted the challenges of tackling the worlds most pressing humanitarian needs. Important projects are undertaken in peace & conflict resolution, disease prevention & treatment, water & sanitation, maternal & child health, basic education & literacy & economic & community development.
