What is a Rotary Fellowship?

Rotary Fellowships are groups of Rotarians, Rotarian spouses, and Rotaractors who join together to:

· Share a common interest in worthwhile recreational activities (sports, hobbies, etc.)

· Further their vocational development through acquaintance with others of the same profession

· Make new friends around the world

· Explore new opportunities for service

· Have fun and enhance their experience in Rotary

How Rotary Fellowships Operate

· Each fellowship is operated independently of Rotary International, with its own rules, dues requirements, and administrative structure.

· Membership in fellowships is open to Rotarians, spouses of Rotarians, and Rotaractors.

· Fellowships must be international in nature with active members in at least three countries.

· Each fellowship elects at least three officers to oversee the group’s administration.

· Fellowships are expected to facilitate communication among their members and maintain regular communication with RI.

Some Benefits of Rotary Fellowships

· Fellowships provide opportunities for Rotarians to make lasting friendships outside of their own club, district, or country.

· Fellowships contribute to the advancement of world understanding and peace.

· Fellowships serve as an incentive for attracting new members to Rotary and retaining existing ones.
