HISTORY OF THE
ROTARY FOUNDATION
At the 1917 convention, outgoing RI President Arch C. Klumph proposed to set up an endowment for the purpose of doing well in the world. In 1928, it was renamed The Rotary Foundation, and it became a distinct entity within Rotary International.
GROWTH OF THE FOUNDATION
In 1929, the Foundation made its first gift of $500 to the International Society for Crippled Children. The organization, created by Rotarian Edgar F. Daddy Allen, later grew into Easter Seals.
When Rotary founder Paul Harris died in 1947, contributions
began pouring in to Rotary International, and the Paul Harris Memorial
Fund was created to build the Foundation

RI PRESIDENT RTN K.R. RAVINDRAN
In life, sometimes the experiences that matter the
most are the briefest. They pass in the blink of an eye: a
few days, a few hours, a few moments. They are the
experiences that illuminate the landscape of our
memory, shining brightly even years later. They are the
moments in which we see, suddenly, something we had
not seen; we understand something we had not
understood; we forge a connection we had not expected For me, this has been a Rotary year like no other. I
have been around the world, traversing countries and
continents. I have been to places I had never seen before, and I have returned to familiar places and seen
them, as for the first time, through the lens of Rotary. When you travel for Rotary, you travel with a different sense of perspective and a different sense of purpose. There is an awareness of being part of something larger
than yourself. When you board a plane or a train, or leave your home in the dark
hours of early morning, you may be leaving for lands unknown but at your destination, there will be no strangers. There will be Rotarians, waiting and
welcoming. There will be work to do, something to learn, and perhaps something to
teach.
There will be connections to forge, friendships to build, and memories to carry for a
lifetime.
This year, I have been the traveler, and I have been welcomed by Rotarians around
the world. A few months from now, from 28 May to 1 June, I invite you to step into
my experience: allow me to welcome you to Seoul for our 107th International
Convention.
The Koreans have a saying: . In English we would say, "When a person is born, send them to Seoul." For Seoul is a city of opportunities: a
wonderful destination with rich traditions, modern conveniences, and a culture
unlike any other. But I ask you to join me in Seoul not only for all of this, but also
for the experiences you will have there with your fellow Rotarians.
For a brief moment in time, you will experience Rotary as I have experienced it: in
all its diversity, all its warmth, and all its potential. You will be greeted as an old
friend by people you have never met; you will share your thoughts, even without a
shared language. You will learn with wonder of what Rotary has achieved, and leave
inspired to achieve even more.
Before this Rotary year comes to its close, I ask you to do what I have done: to leave your homes, to board your flights, to travel toward the unknown with an open heart
and an open mind, confident that Rotary will welcome you. Join me, and your
fellow Rotarians, as we Connect with Korea Touch the World.

worldwide.

Peace Fellowships.

EVENT CALENDER
In 1932, Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor created The
Four-Way Test. The test, which has been translated into more 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?

Paul P. Harris, an attorney, wanted to
create a professional group with the
same friendly spirit he felt in the
small towns of his youth. On 23
February 1905, Harris, Gustavus
Loehr, Silvester Schiele, and Hiram
Shorey gathered at Loehrs 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 rotating meeting locations.
Within five years clubs had formed across the country, from San
Francisco to New York.
In August 1910, Rotarians held their first convention in Chicago. The 16
clubs that existed at that time united to form the National Association of
Rotary Clubs.
In 1912, the name changed to International Association 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 2,000 clubs and an
estimated 108,000 members on six continents.
Rotarys reputation attracted presidents, prime ministers, and a host of other luminaries to its ranks among them author Thomas Mann, diplomat Carlos P. Romulo, and composer Jean Sibelius.
As Rotary grew, members pooled their resources and used their talents to
serve their communities. The organization's dedication to this ideal is
best expressed in its motto: Service Above Self.

Gustavus Loehr, Silvester Schiele,
Hiram Shorey, and Paul P. Harris,
circa 1905-12.
