Rotary is Networking
In 1905, our founder, Paul Harris, conceived of Rotary as a way for business and professional men to help each other.
It was an opportunity to get to know other businessmen and support them in their businesses.
He called it fellowship and mutual helpfulness; today we would call it networking.
Here’s Paul Harris talking in 1945:
This new club was called Rotary because in the early days the members met in rotation
in their various places of business so that they might come to know one another better.
The heart and soul of the first Rotary Club in Chicago was fellowship...
...and the original idea of mutual helpfulness evolved into the idea of general helpfulness.
