    Rotary Information - HISTORY OF ROTARY INTERNATIONAL 

    The first four Rotarians (from left): Gustavus Loehr,

    Silvester Schiele, Hiram Shorey, and Paul P. Harris,

    circa 1905-12.

    Paul P. Harris, an attorney, wanted to create a pro-

    fessional group with the same friendly spirit he felt

    n the small towns of his youth. On 23 February

    1905, Harris, Gustavus Loehr, Silvester Schiele, and

    Hiram Shorey gathered at Loehr’s office in Room 711

    of the Unity Building in downtown Chicago. This

    was the first Rotary club meeting. They decided to

    call the new club ―Rotary‖ after the practice of rotat-ng meeting locations.

    Within five years clubs had formed across the coun-

    ry, from San Francisco to New York.

    In August 1910, Rotarians held their first convention

    n Chicago. The 16 clubs that existed at that time

    united to form the National Association of RotaryClubs.

    In 1912, the name changed to International Associa-

    ion of Rotary Clubs to reflect the addition of clubs in

    other countries. The name Rotary International was

    adopted in 1922.

    By July 1925, Rotary had grown to more than 2,0

    clubs and an estimated 108,000 members on six

    continents.

    Rotary’s reputation attracted presidents, prime m

    isters, and a host of other luminaries to its ranks —

    among them author Thomas Mann, diplomat Car

    P. Romulo, and composer Jean Sibelius.

     As Rotary grew, members pooled their resources

    used their talents to serve their communities. The

    organization's dedication to this ideal is best ex-

    pressed in its motto: Service Above Self .

    The Four Way Test

    In 1932, Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor created The F-Way Test. The test, which has been translated inmore than 100 languages, asks the following questions: 

    Of the things we think, say or do

    Is it the TRUTH?

    Is it FAIR to all concerned?

    Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER

    FRIENDSHIPS?

    Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

    Rotary Information: “ROTARACT IS JUST THE BEGINNING” for Mitty Cha

    The Talent Around the

    Table: Mitty Chang

    When it comes to Rotary, Mitty Changs practically a lifer – and he’s only 26.

    Chang joined Interact 10 years ago inFremont, Calif., where almost a quar-er of the 2,000 students at his highchool were Interactors. He went on to

    organize two Rotaract clubs. Now anntrepreneur who works with small

    businesses and nonprofits to buildheir online identity and brand, he plans to become a Ro-arian within the next few years. ―I expect to have a longife in Rotary,‖ he says.

    We caught up with Chang at the 2014 Rotary convention

    n Sydney, Australia, to find out what being a member ofhe Rotary family means to him.

    THE ROTARIAN: What has kept you involved in Rotary?CHANG: I joined my Interact club with my friends. But Iended up staying because I enjoyed the warm fuzziesou get from volunteering. Rotaract has been my passion

    over the past few years. I owe so much to the Rotaryamily. Most of my good friends come from Rotary, and Imet my girlfriend through Rotaract. I run a Web designbusiness, and 90 percent of my clients are connectionsve made somewhere through the Rotary family. It’s

    razy how much Rotary is integrated into my life.

    TR: Rotary was founded in part for business networking.Do you think that’s still an emphasis? CHANG: I’ve traveled around the United States andalked to a lot of Rotary clubs. At many of them, it’s al-most taboo to talk about your own business during a clubmeeting. But I find that with Rotaractors and young Ro-arians, they’re looking to connect and grow profession-ally. That’s one of the things I look for too. 

    TR: Why do you think a young prosional might join Rotaract rather thRotary?CHANG: Look at how your clubmeets. Meeting any time other thaafter 5 p.m. is almost impossible fo

    younger professionals, who may nown their own business or be maners yet. And when you’re in your 2your life can change in an instant. could be that you’re moving, you’vreceived a promotion, a raise, a trafer, or you graduate from college.That’s one of the reasons Rotarac

    so important. We’re Rotarians in training. Rotaract is agood segue into Rotary.

    TR: How have the leadership skills that you’ve develo

    in Rotaract clubs translated to your career?CHANG: I would attribute 90 percent of my public speing skills to my Rotaract experience. I was president otwo clubs, which has given me a lot of opportunities tospeak in front of a crowd, perfect that, and get over it.

     And I’ve been fortunate to have been invited to Rotaryinstitutes for my zone and some of the district confer-ences on the West Coast as a speaker.

    TR: You’ve been to seven conventions. Why do you kcoming back?CHANG: If I had a turning point in my Rotary life, it wo

    be my first convention, in 2007 in Salt Lake City. I willnever forget the opening plenary session. It was cool tsee how everyone is a part of this whole family. The reson I keep going back to these conventions is that eveyear I make new friends, and I get the chance to see mold friends. That’s something I would travel around theworld to do anyway, but to do it with Rotary is 10 timebetter. I can go into downtown Sydney, walk into a restaurant and see someone with a Rotary emblem, andstrike up a conversation.

    From THE DOVE At the Rotary Club of Holy Spirit D3780, INTERACT ISTHE BEGINNING. Soon after the Interact Club of HolySpirit National High School was formed in 2009, itsofficers and members immediately underwent trainingand immersion in providing hands-on service throughschool projects and those initiated by RC Holy Spirit. Af-er graduating from high school in 2010, the former Inter-actors organized the Rotaract Club of Holy Spirit sohat they could continue providing service above self, amind-set and passion they had developed in Interact.Since then, the development chain for youth service part-

    ners of Holy Spirit has been maintained, from Interact to

    Rotaract and hopefully soon, to Rotary.Even as they participate in youth trainings, fellowsevents and talent contests organized by the district aby the club, the Interactors and Rotaractors of Holy Spconsistently demonstrate in the many community servprojects completed jointly with the Rotary club, what thalways do best: RENDER SERVICE ABOVE SELF FTHE COMMUNITY.

     A second Rotaract club sponsored by RC Holy Spirit  just been registered with Rotary International, the Roract Club of Central Institute of Technology. It’

    school based Rotaract club.

    Posted on February 18, 2015 

     By Nisha Kotecha, president of the Rotaract Club of

     Hampstead, Hendon and Golders Green, England  

    I know a Rotary Club that has changed the lives ofhundreds, if not thou-sands, of young peopleover the years. I knowthis because I have at-tended some of theirmeetings. And becauseI am one of the livesthey have changed.

     

    The Rotary club I amreferring to is one of thelargest in London, so

    they don’t need to generate publicity around theiractivities. Or do they?

    This Rotary club is doing incredible, life-changingwork. But there is one thing they are not doing.They are not sharing their story with the commu-nity. They are well known and respected withinRotary circles, but they are not very well known atall outside the family of Rotary. And they are notalone. Many of our clubs are doing incrediblework, and impacting many lives, but the public

    does not know about it.

    Here are two reasons why I think we must starttelling others our Rotary “good news.” 

    It will attract new members 

    I understand and love that for many Rotarians, it ismore about serving than recognition. But it is notbeing a glory seeker to tell people in the commu-nity the impact we are having. It should actually be

    the duty of club members to do this. Why? Be-cause more people will hear about Rotary, theywill learn what Rotary is about, and they will see

    the impact that can be made by being a membeSeeing Rotary in action, and seeing the positivresults we have, is attractive to prospective members. And that is good for Rotary, that is good four projects, and that is good for the new members, who gain the added ability to help ot

    ers through Rotary.

    It will motivate others to support our projects 

    If you, your campaign, and your project are thworld’s best kept secret, you are not likely to breaany fundraising records or have the massive impact you were hoping for. TheGlobal Swimarthon  and World’s Greatest Meal  were incredibsuccessful because they were incredibly visibl

    and launched amazing campaigns thshared every milestone they reached.

    Hopefully by now I have convinced you why it important to share. There are many ways to do sthrough social media, through videos, througpartnering with others, through your local mdia. Here in the United Kingdom, we have threRotary members who have excelled at doing thPaul Wilson, Eve Conway, and Mukesh MalhotrI’m sure there are examples near you, and the

    would probably be happy to give you advice if yoask them.

    In April of last year, I started a website to shainspiring stories from charitable organizationaround the world. If you want to read some goonews, visit my website,Good News Shared,  anget in touch with me if you have news to sharBut by all means, let others know the good you adoing, so the world will understand how awesomRotary is.
