The Rotary Balita no. 645 (May 4, 1950).

What does Rotary mean by international service? Those things that a Rotarian can do to extend his horizon of thought and action beyond the borders of his own country by getting acquainted with people of other countries-their culture, customs, accomplishments, aspirations, their problems-through personal contact in the Rotarian's own community, by travel and attendance at conventions, through reading and correspondence, and through cooperation in all club activities that will be helpful to men of other lands and with them to advance international understanding and good will. What are some notable projects of international service? The Rotary Foundation and a number of Rotary districts sponsor fellowships for advanced study in other countries. Clubs or individual Rotarians engage in correspondence or send food, clothing and books to areas of want. Community forums. Educational reconstruction in war-devastated countries takes many forms, some of which are suggested in paper No. 750. A large number of Rotary clubs have helped their schools to introduce courses on the United Nations by providing them with copies of Rotary's commentary on the Charter, "From Here On!" and subscriptions to "Report on U.N. by Rotary International." Local newspaper and radio stations can frequently be persuaded to give more positive support to the advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace. A series of radio scripts on this theme is available from Rotary International.
