The Four-Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do:

  1. Is it the truth?
  2. Is it fair to all concerned?
  3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
  4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

The Object of Rotary

To encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

  3. The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business and community life;
  4. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
