With the annual change comes a new presidential theme and a new theme logos that accompanies the consistent Rotary branding. The theme however is much more than a logo: it is also gives a sense of direction and emphasis for that year building on previous themes, consistent with the Rotary Action Plan.
We all know that helping others is so much more personally satisfying and rewarding altruism is so much stronger than selfishness. The theme also demonstrates the scale of Rotary’s impact globally aiming not just to improve but change the lives of those served by Rotarians and Rotary.
Rotary members around the globe are serving humanity by providing clean water to underdeveloped communities, promoting peace in conflict areas, and strengthening communities through basic education and literacy and none more important than our work to eradicate polio worldwide.
Presenting the theme, President Shekhar said that “Service is the rent we pay for the space we occupy on this earth”. His initiatives to Grow More to Do More and the membership drive of “Each One Bring One” all align with Rotary’s action plan ands goals.

Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for more than 35 years. Our goal of ridding the world of this disease is closer than ever.
Rotary members have contributed more than $2.1 billion and countless volunteer hours to protect nearly 3 billion children in 122 countries from this paralyzing disease. Rotary’s advocacy efforts have played a role in decisions by governments to contribute more than $10 billion to the effort.
Today, polio remains endemic only in Afghanistan and Pakistan. But it’s crucial to continue working to keep other countries polio-free. If all eradication efforts stopped today, within 10 years, polio could paralyze as many as 200,000 children each year.

End Polio Now
Reinforcing our Commitment
Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for more than 30 years, and we’ve made incredible progress in the fight to rid the world of it forever.
As a founding partner of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, we've helped to reduced polio cases by more than 99.9 percent.
It’s crucial to eliminate polio from the last three countries where it remains endemic and to keep other countries polio-free.
If all eradication efforts stopped today, within 10 years, polio could paralyze as many as 200,000 children each year.
Would you like to support our efforts? Join us at a meeting or at the Markets.
