Who can join?
We’re looking for people who want to give back to their communities. Rotary clubs also welcome Rotaractors, Rotary Peace Fellows, and other members of the family of Rotary who qualify for membership. Impact starts with our members — people like you who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change — across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.

How can I become a member?
Clubs accept new members by invitation. Why not join us at our club meetings and find out if our club is right for you? Just send us an email to get your invitation to our next meeting. Then the first step to becoming a Rotarian with The Almancil International Rotary Club is to attend our meetings and introduce yourself to our current members.

What are the benefits?

Becoming a Rotary member connects you with a diverse group of professionals who share your drive to give back. Through regular meetings and events, you’ll:

• Discuss your community’s needs and develop creative ways to meet them
• Connect with other leaders who are changing the world
• Expand your leadership and professional skills
• Catch up with good friends and meet new ones
• Other benefits of membership include:

Rotary Global Rewards, our member benefits program, which offers discounts on products and services. It’s Rotary’s way of helping our members spend less so they can do more.

Rotary Fellowships give members the chance to join a group of people who share similar interests, hobbies, or vocations. Some groups use their fellowship to make a positive difference.

Rotarian Action Groups unite Rotary members, family members, program participants and alumni who share their expertise in particular fields by collaborating with clubs and districts on projects.

What’s expected of me?

As a club member, you will be asked to:

• Pay club dues
• Attend meetings and events
• Use your professional skills and talents to make a difference

As a Rotarian, you are expected to:

• Act with integrity and high ethical standards in my personal and professional life
• Deal fairly with others and treat them and their occupations with respect
• Use my professional skills through Rotary to: 
• mentor young people,

• and improve people’s quality of life in my community and the world

• Help maintain a harassment-free environment in Rotary meetings, events, and activities, report any suspected harassment, and help ensure non-retaliation to those individuals that report harassment.

Rotaract and Interact clubs

If you’re between the ages of 12 and 30, you may be interested in joining one of our service clubs for young professionals and youth. Like Rotary clubs, Rotaract and Interact clubs give their members the chance to make friends, develop leadership skills, and create positive change.
