When you join Rotary, you want to connect with your community and give back to others. That’s also why you stay in Rotary for many years. Being part of a club is the first step towards making good things happen in the world. However, the real benefits only start to happen when you get involved. There are countless ways to shape your experience and get the most out of your Rotary membership.

Connect for Good is a short guide full of useful ideas about connecting with your club, your community, and the wider Rotary world. You can use it to encourage conversations with prospective, new and current members about how to align their passions with Rotary, so that they’ll get the most out of their experience, regardless of where they are on the Rotary journey.

Prospective, new and current members can:

• Connect with their club by sharing ideas, finding a mentor, organising a club event, trying a new role and becoming a club leader
• Connect with their community by volunteering to help on a service project, supporting a youth program, joining/starting a Rotary Community Corps, participating in training events and collaborating with other clubs
• Connect with the Rotary world by joining a fellowship or an action group, participating in a global project, helping eradicate polio, going to a conference or International Convention or taking part in a Rotary friendship exchange
