Pop Quiz: Can you recite the RI Vision and Mission Statements?
Probably not. . . . So here's the deal:
Our Vision
"Together, we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change — across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves."
Rotary's vision statement adopted by the Board and Trustees in June 2017, reflects the impact Rotary aspires to have on the world and our members.
Our Mission
We provide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through our fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders.
