Membership

The purpose of the Rotary Club of Cultural Exchange Enthusiasts is to open the opportunities of Rotary to business professionals, leaders, and philanthropists who may be unable to meet traditional attendance requirements due to physical immobility, schedule conflicts, occupational demands, or even living too far from a traditional Rotary club.

[Embracing the mission and vision of Rotary International,] the Rotary Club of Cultural Exchange Enthusiasts focuses on our lives [in the greater global community]. We are curious about different cultures and want to understand how others live.
