Five Avenues of Service - Vocational Service

Vocational Service

Membership in Rotary is based on a member’s vocation, with each club striving to

create a microcosm of its community’s business and professional world. This unique

feature provides the source for Rotary’s historic commitment to vocational service,

the second of Rotary’s five Avenues of Service. Through vocational service, Rotarians

are expected to adhere to and promote high ethical standards in all their business

dealings, recognize the worthiness of all useful occupations, and contribute their

professional expertise and skills to addressing societal problems and needs.

The club and its members share responsibility for promoting vocational service.

Each club should develop projects that allow members to use their business and

professional skills. Members are expected to contribute to these projects and to

conduct their own business dealings in accordance with Rotary principles.
