Honesty & Integrity: The Heart of Rotary
In Rotary—and in life—honesty and integrity aren’t just values, they’re essentials. They build trust, define character, and guide meaningful service.
The Four-Way Test begins with, “Is it the truth?” A powerful question, but one we must live—not just recite.
Too often, in our eagerness to grow or gain influence, these principles get sidelined—even in Rotary. And sometimes, they’re compromised for personal benefit. That’s when we must pause and remind ourselves—no success is worth the cost of our core values.
Let’s:
• Lead by example
• Prioritize character over numbers
• Celebrate integrity in action
• Make the Four-Way Test a way of life
“Service Above Self” only holds meaning when grounded in truth. Let’s not just speak of values—let’s live them.
