Rotary
is a world fellowship of business and professional persons who accept
the ideal of service, individually and collectively, as a basis
for success and happiness in business and community life. Our Wisconsin
Rapids Sunrise Rotary club isare proud to be part of this organization
that is united
worldwide
to
provide humanitarian
service,
encourage
high ethical
standards (click to learn about
the 4-Way Test)
in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. In
more than 160 countries worldwide, approximately 1.2 million Rotarians
belong to more than 35,000 Rotary clubs.
The
main objective of Rotary is service — in the community, in
the workplace, and throughout the world. Rotarians develop community
service projects that address many of today's most critical issues. The
Rotary motto is Service Above Self.
Although our Rotary clubs develop their own service
programs, all Rotarians worldwide are united in a campaign for the global
eradication
of polio.
In the 1980s, Rotary launched the world’s first global polio immunization program, Polio Plus, in 1985. Rotary has contributed more than $1.6 billion and countless volunteer hours to immunize more than 2.5 billion children worldwide. Polio cases have plummeted by more than 99.9 percent from 350,000 cases in 1988 to 27 in 2016.
The mission of Rotary International is to support its member clubs in
fulfilling the object of Rotary by:
- Fostering unity among member clubs;
- Strengthening and expanding Rotary
around the world;
- Communicating worldwide the work of Rotary; and
- Providing a system of
international administration.
