About Cork Rotary
The Rotary Club of Cork is a group of people from different backgrounds who get together with the purpose of fostering lifetime friendships while giving back to the community we belong to, with our ever-present motto of 'service above self'.
Our Guiding Principles
Guided by the ideal of service as the basis of worthy enterprise, we foster and encourage these four principles:
​
-
The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;
-
High ethical standards in business and professions, the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations, and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an opportunity to serve society;
-
The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian's personal, business, and community life;
-
The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
