Offer my vocational talents: to provide opportunities for young people, to work for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality of life in my community. • 7. Honor the trust that Rotary and fellow Rotarians provide and not do anything that will bring disfavor or reflect adversely on Rotary or fellow Rotarians. • 8. Not seek from a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally accorded others in a business or professional relationship.
