Today’s Topic: “Rotary Month Themes”

Throughout the Rotary year, Rotary International recommends the celebration of different aspects of Rotary by designating month time frames toward each. All through the by-laws of RI, there are references that will state The RI Board encourages –fill in the blank- groups to highlight activities through projects, activities, and events in celebration of –fill in the blank- in –fill in the month-. Each of these Rotary Months are as follows; July - Literacy Month; August - Membership and Extension Month; September - New Generations Month; October - Vocational Service Month; November - The Rotary Foundation Month; January - Rotary Awareness Month; February - World Understanding Month; April - Magazine Month; and June - Rotary Fellowships Month.

There is a lot available regarding each of these monthly celebrations, and on our website, there is an easy way to find out about each. Here is how; directly under the main banner of the website is what is called the “Menu Bar”. One of the items on the menu bar is “Rotary Month Themes”, with a drop down arrow. Highlighting the arrow will show each month’s theme, with a link to an article on each month theme. 

Each of these “Month Theme” articles will include information, ideas, pictures, videos and links to help celebrate the many facets of Rotary.
