Our Rotary Club was chartered on September 28, 1989 in Fort Worth, Texas, USA.  At that time, we were known as the Rotary Club of Fort Worth Horizon and we met weekly for breakfast.
 
In 2007, we were selected to participate in a Rotary International pilot project to foster new ideas about how Rotary Clubs might be able to change their meeting format to attract additional members and professionals from the younger generations.  Our club chose to meet twice per month rather than weekly.
 
On July 10, 2008, we changed our club's name to Rotary Club of Fort Worth International.  We chose this name because most of our members have either lived in other countries, traveled extensively to other countries, or were born in a different country but are now U.S. citizens.  At that time, we also changed from a breakfast meeting to a lunch meeting.
