Sustain and Grow Membership

• Effective Rotary clubs should strive to keep
  current members and bring in new members. To be
  effective, Rotary clubs need committed,
  knowledgeable members who wish to provide
  service. More members results in
• More service potential for a club
• More supporters of The Rotary Foundation
• A larger pool of potential leaders

Successful Service Projects

• Effective clubs provide service to their local
  community and communities in other countries.
  Service Above Self, Rotarys motto, embodies
  the ideal of service that a club must practice in
  order to be effective. These service efforts make
  a positive difference in the world.

Support The Rotary Foundation

• Effective clubs support the mission of The Rotary
  Foundation, world peace and understanding, by
  participating in Foundation programs. Through
  financial contributions, Rotary clubs ensure that
  the programs of the Foundation and its mission
  will continue.

Leaders Beyond the Club Level

• Effective clubs plan for the future by
  continually developing potential leaders for
  office at all levels of the organization.
  District leaders help coordinate club efforts
  that result in service output no club could
  achieve on their own. Strong leaders at each
  level of Rotary ensures that clubs accomplish
  their goals.
