The historic reference

The first gathering for the establishment of Rotary International took place in Chicago in 1905 when Paul P. Harris called a meeting with three of his friends. The first Rotary Clubs were established in the United States in 1910, primarily in Los Angeles, Oakland, San Francisco, and Seattle. Rotary International was the new name of the organization after the club quickly became well-known throughout the world and gained prominence. Positive resolution and global peacebuilding are the objectives of Rotary International.
