The Rotary Club of Houston, in operation since 1912, is an association of successful business professionals, all prominent in their fields of endeavor. Our members volunteer their efforts through the work of some two dozen club committees. The club is a leading speaker forum and a major civic participant in the development of future planning for the City of Houston and surrounding areas. Our Mission: To improve the quality of human life through volunteer community service. Our Vision: To be the pre-eminent community service organization for business and community leaders in the City of Houston. We are a catalyst for improving the quality of life in our community. We pledge to increase awareness of Rotary ideals while encouraging participation within our Club and by partnership with others. Rotary meetings and events provide our membership an opportunity for social interaction, camaraderie, and discussion of topical issues. Motto: Service Above Self
