What is Rotary

Thousands have made an answer, each in his own way. It is easier to note what Rotary does than what it is. One recently has said, "If Rotary has encouraged us to take a more kindly outlook on life and men; if Rotary has taught us greater tolerance and the desire to see the best in others; if Rotary has brought us pleasant and helpful contacts with others who also are trying to capture and radiate the joy and beauty of life, then Rotary has brought us all that we can expect."
