Rotary Club is a Excellent Organization. From what I have read the only issue is when individuals can no longer afford the yearly membership cost which is over $2000 a year
This affects only a small part of the Membership

These people are doing an amazing job and social impact.
This is the headquarter of the Rotary international. An organization who has 1.2 million members today. They fighting to end polio in the world.
They have also others interesting areas of focus.

They also are one of the best organizations in the world who really use like 90 percent of the money they raised to the real social impact projects.
As young you can easily identify and join a club in your country or decide to start your own club. It's up to you.
They also have a scholarship programs.
This building is awesome. The view on Evanston city and also Chicago is just a great #mustSee

The cafeteria in the lower floor of Rotary is a hidden gem. Great great staff, really good salad bar, custom made burgers and sandwiches, and a rotating special of the day including some good Chicago food trucks and vendors. All for very decent prices. Soup is just $2-$2.50 for example.

Avoid Working Here at all costs. Do not be lured by 'We are a friendly non-profit' that cares. Parking is a priority model. Bureaucracy galore. People justifying their career w complexity for complexities sake. This is where corporate two-bits go when they failure elsewhere.

Nice building. Next to bars. You will need drinks.

Based in Evanston, the Rotary is a world class organization supporting business and professional leaders in order to provide humanitarian services, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and to advance goodwill and peace around the world. The organization is very cool and the building is a nice addition to the local architecture.

Warm welcome by the interpreters for Italian.

If you are a Rotarian, this is a must stop. Shake hands with Paul Harris (bronze). See the statue of Bill Sergeant and the room RI started in...and if you are lucky, pop in the president's office!

The NGO is great! The people that work there they are very helpful and you can ask to take a building tour, the building architecture is cutting edge tech, and they are LEED certified, you can go to the Rotation International Hall of Honor where are placed flags from every country witch there are a Rotary Club and visit the office of the President of Rotary Internacional. On the ground floor they have a small museum telling the story of Paul P. Harry the founder of Rotary International (1905), and you can see a replica on the Paul Harry's office at that time. Check out in the pictures I added.
