As a reminder to all members, Rotary is a very diverse non-political, non-religious international service organization with members from all nationalities and all faiths.  The basis of that structure is contained in our Constitution, Article 13: Community, National, and International Affairs, posted on ClubRunner. 
 
Members are reminded that it is not appropriate to distribute literature of a political or religious nature at Rotary, either to or from speakers or to the club in general, or to request members sign political petitions, or to promote any political or religious position from the podium.   Private conversations among members are just that – private. 
 
“Rotary is an organization of business and professional people pledged to up-holding the highest professional standards. Rotarians believe that worldwide fellowship and international peace can be achieved when members unite under the banner of service.”
