A new way to connect prospective members with clubs
Rotary’s new system for managing prospective members is now live. In the new system, prospective members complete an interest form and choose a club to connect with. Club leaders will receive a notification when someone chooses their club, prompting them to review the membership inquiry. If the club's expectations don't align with the candidate's, they can reassign the inquiry to district leaders.
Club and district leaders can learn more about their roles and how the new system works in these resources:
How to Manage Your Club’s Membership Inquiries (PDF), How to Manage Your District’s Membership Inquiries (PDF) — Learn how to take action on your membership inquiries, change the email notification settings, opt your club out of receiving membership inquiries, and more in these comprehensive guides.
Connecting With Prospective Members (PDF) — Learn how the system for managing prospective members works and explore the roles of clubs and districts in effectively connecting with prospective members.
Managing Prospective Member Inquiries (online course) — Learn about proven approaches for managing membership inquiries in this interactive online course.
For more than a century, Rotary and its members have been promoting peace and working to address the underlying causes of conflict in our communities and around the globe – a challenge that’s more important now than ever before.
On May 20, you can learn more in a special on-line presentation “Unite for Peace”– a high-energy hour of stories, music and more, showcasing the peacebuilding work of Rotary through our commitment to create lasting change that enhances international relationships, improves lives and communities, and creates a more peaceful world.
Our very own Joe Solway, Rotarian form Bowmanville , Ontario Canada, and Rotary Zone 28's Assistant Public Image Coordinator is producing this show.
You don't need to be a Rotary member to log in.
All are welcome.

The Rotary Peace Centers will accept applications for 2027-28 Rotary Peace Fellowships from 1 February through 15 May 2026. For the first time, candidates will be able to apply to study at Rotary’s next peace center opening at Symbiosis International University in Pune, India. Rotary and Rotaract clubs can work with their district Rotary Foundation chair or Rotary Peace Fellowship subcommittee chair to recruit and recommend experienced peacebuilders for the fellowship programs.
The Rotary Foundation will select up to 170 peace fellows this year to attend one of our nine partner universities with leading programs in peace studies, sustainable development, and conflict prevention and transformation. The fellows will be able to participate in a one-year professional development certificate program to learn advanced peacebuilding skills or earn a master’s degree in a variety of disciplines related to peace and development. The Foundation pays for tuition and fees, housing and meals, round-trip transportation, and internship and field-study expenses. Clubs and districts do not need to provide funding to recommend fellowship candidates. Use this referral form to have information sent to potential candidates.
Since the Rotary Peace Centers program began in 2002, more than 1,800 fellows have graduated from our programs to serve as leaders in governments, humanitarian organizations, educational and research institutions, and international organizations like the United Nations and the World Bank.
