Membership plans

When you join a Rotary club, your potential to make a difference in the world and in your community grows exponentially.  This is because you are joining a network of over 1.2 million people who take action - volunteers from all over the world who share a goal of improving others' quality of life.

Membership in a Rotary club offers you opportunities to connect with other professionals who aren't afraid to lead and are dedicated to making a difference.  Spending time with your fellow club members - whether to attend a meeting, plan a project, exchange ideas, or just have fun - can lead to lifelong friendships.  When you get involved and make connections, you will inevitably grow as a person and develop new skills.

The top two reasons people join Rotary are to connect with and give back to their communities.  These are the same reasons members stay in Rotary year after year.  Simply joining Rotary isn't going to change lives or make those connections though.  That happens when you get involved.  You'll shape your own experience and decide how to get the most out of your membership.

It's simple and it's fun!

Rotary Clubs are part of a gigantic Network.  At the top, is Rotary International.  Over 180 countries participate in Rotary programs!  Countries are divided up into Zones, which are divided up into Districts and within each District are the individual Clubs.  It's a highly organized, fantastically inspiring organization!  The Kingwood Club is part of District 7545.  There are 55 clubs in the new District!  Each Club has a President, President-Elect, Treasurer and Secretary.  Each District has a Governor, Governor-Elect, Treasurer, and Secretary.  There are other key positions within each level of the organization.  

There is so much to learn about Rotary and all the great things they do.  Many training activities, conferences, and other fun activities are held for members which help you better understand how Rotary works and how you can better help your world and community through the good works of the Rotary organization.

Each Club has dues that are paid, typically on a quarterly basis.  These dues are a combination of Rotary International dues, District Dues, Club Dues, and your meals. The Kingwood Club also collects a small amount for the Rotary Foundation and Polio Plus, when opted by a member.  These dues accomplish a multitude of things, but in short, they help each level of the club accomplish their missions while making funds available for grants to assist clubs in achieving maximum success within their service project goals.

Rotary International Dues            $24.38

District Dues                                   $12.50

Club Dues                                        $14.12

Total Quarterly Dues:                    $51.00

This is just $17.00 per month!

Optional contributions:

Rotary Foundation- any amount

Polio Plus- $10.00

Rotarians around the world pledge to use the 4-way test in their professional and personal lives.
