The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has partnered with Rotary to eradicate polio. We’re “this close” to getting the job done and it will mark only the second time in history that a disease has been kicked off planet Earth.
Rotary clubs usually gather weekly for breakfast, lunch, or dinner to fulfill their first guiding principle to develop friendships as an opportunity for service.
The Rotarian's primary motto is "Service Above Self. Rotarians also believe that "One Profits Most Who Serves Best."
