Overview of Rotary Volunteers
T he Rotary Volunteers program fosters and facilitates active volunteer involvement in community and international service projects. Rotarians and other skilled professionals further Rotary’s Avenue of Vocational Service by using their professional skills and experience wherever help is needed.
The Rotary Volunteers program aims to
- Increase awareness of volunteer opportunities
- Help clubs and districts realize the benefits of inviting volunteers to help on their service projects, and assist in identifying volunteers
- Cultivate international understanding and goodwill through humanitarian service
Two helpful resources are the Rotary Volunteers Handbook and the Rotary Volunteers PowerPoint .
Rotary International would like to feature the work of community and international Rotary volunteers on its Web site and in its publications.
