Rotary International Membership Development & Extension AwardRealizing that the continued growth and revitalization of Rotary's membership is essential to the future of the organization, the RI Board of Directors established this annual recognition program for membership development and extension.The program recognizes clubs for three fundamental aspects of membership: membership growth in existing clubs, retention of current club members, and the organization of new clubs. Districts that meet or exceed their membership goal also receive recognition.This is a district level award program in which clubs compete within their own district for the award. Competition is equalized since clubs within a district share the same economic and social conditions impacting membership.
RI Recognition of Membership Development InitiativesThe success of Rotary depends heavily on the ability to develop and retain qualified members. Fostering and encouraging an environment which promotes membership ensures the long-term health of the association. The advancement of our organization corresponds to the creation of new, effective Rotary clubs and their internal membership growth and development. Continued support of various aspects of membership requires innovative and strategic efforts from clubs and districts. To acknowledge clubs who have developed and implemented creative strategies to positively impact membership in their area, one club from each district will be recognized for their efforts based on their fulfillment of one of the 3 primary foundations of membership growth and development,:
