What is Inner Wheel?
Inner Wheel was founded in support of Rotary
in Great Britain and Ireland during the 1920’s. Inner Wheel became
international in 1967 and now has clubs in 98 countries. Membership is open to
female relatives of all Rotarians who wish to get to know one another and work
together in friendship and understanding. Belonging to Inner Wheel gives
members the opportunity to share friendships in Clubs and Districts in Great
Britain and Ireland and throughout the world.
The Inner Wheel Badge is a symbol of
international understanding, friendship and service.
Objectives of Inner Wheel
Inner Wheel concentrates on friendship and
personal service. Each Club selects its own charities and channels of service,
though raising money is not the main objective of Inner Wheel.
The objectives are:
To promote true friendship
To encourage the ideals of
personal service
To foster international understanding
A member may visit another Inner Wheel club
whether it be in her own District, country or overseas, and is always assured
of a warm welcome. One of the greatest joys of Inner Wheel is the opportunity
given to members the world over to learn to know one another and to exchange
ideas. |
