101 Rotary Facts # 46
What do most Rotarians have a hard time doing? Attending meetings? Contributing to the Foundation? Participating in a Service Project? Paying their dues?   Of all of the obligations a person accepts when joining a Rotary club, the one in which MANY Rotarians fall short is "Sharing Rotary".  It is estimated that less than 30 percent of the members of most Rotary clubs have ever made the effort to propose a new member. Thus, in every club, there are many Rotarians who readily accept the pleasures of being a Rotarian without ever sharing that privilege with another qualified individual.  Click Read More
