How Rotary Fellowships Operate

  1. Each fellowship is operated independently of Rotary International, with its own rules, dues requirements, and administrative structure.
  2. Membership in fellowships is open to Rotarians, spouses of Rotarians, and Rotaractors.
  3. Fellowships must be international in nature with active members in at least three countries.
  4. Each fellowship elects at least three officers to oversee the group’s administration.
  5. Fellowships are expected to facilitate communication among their members and maintain regular communication with RI.

Some Benefits of Rotary Fellowships

  1. Fellowships provide opportunities for Rotarians to make lasting friendships outside of their own club, district, or country.
  2. Fellowships contribute to the advancement of world understanding and peace.
  3. Fellowships serve as an incentive for attracting new members to Rotary and retaining existing ones.
