The following information will help to show in a nut shell how the various activities of Rotary service activities are provided by our members to our local community and the world community as part of the World Family of Rotary.
Predominantly, there are Four Avenues of Service which all Rotary Clubs are expected to follow.

4 Avenues of Service

Club Service

This means that friendship and acquaintanceship is the first step and tool for focusing on various dimensions of service. This avenue focuses on building the club, its weekly meetings, the friendships developed there and other aspects of the club, which provide the opportunity to serve others.

Community Service

Each Rotarian and Rotary Club can apply the ideal of service to improve the life of the community. This avenue of service takes many forms, such as youth activities, community betterment projects, aid to the needy and hundreds of other projects.

International Service

This avenue focuses on the importance of advancing international understanding, good will and peace throughout the worldwide fellowship of Rotary. Here you will see world community service projects, Rotary Foundation Awards, international youth exchanges, activities to promote goodwill and understanding, and many other aspects of world fellowship

PolioPlus Programme – a landmark project dreamed and implemented by Rotary.

In 1985, Rotary launched the PolioPlus program to protect children worldwide from the cruel and fatal consequences of polio. In 1988, the World Health Assembly challenged the world to eradicate polio. Since that time, Rotary's efforts and those of partner agencies, including the World Health Organization, the United Nations Children's Fund, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and governments around the world, have achieved a 99 percent reduction in the number of polio cases worldwide. Rotarians stand at the brink of a great victory and look forward to celebrating the global eradication of polio in 2005, the organization's centennial year.
