These principles have been developed over the years to provide Rotarians with a strong, common purpose and direction. They serve as a foundation for our relationships with each other and the action we take in the world.

Object of Rotary

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

• FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;
• SECOND: 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;
• THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life;
• FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.

The Four-Way Test

The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and Rotarians recite it at club meetings:
Of the things we think, say or do

1. Is it the TRUTH?
2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

Avenues of Service

We channel our commitment to service at home and abroad through five Avenues of Service, which are the foundation of club activity.

• Club Service focuses on making clubs strong. A thriving club is anchored by strong relationships and an active membership development plan.
• Vocational Service calls on every Rotarian to work with integrity and contribute their expertise to the problems and needs of society. Learn more in An Introduction to Vocational Service and the Code of Conduct.
• Community Service encourages every Rotarian to find ways to improve the quality of life for people in their communities and to serve the public interest. Learn more in Communities in Action: A Guide to Effective Projects.
• International Service exemplifies our global reach in promoting peace and understanding. We support this service avenue by sponsoring or volunteering on international projects, seeking partners abroad, and more.
• Youth Service recognizes the importance of empowering youth and young professionals through leadership development programs such as Interact, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, and Rotary Youth Exchange.

Walkathon Arranged by Rotary Club of Regency Estate, Rotary Club of Dombivli Regency and Rotary Club of Palava was a great success where we have passed the message of Prevention of Thalesemia, which was well supported by Interact Club of Regency Estate and Senior Citizen Club of Regency Estate

Followed by Free Diabetic Checkup Camp – where we were able to touch base 167 beneficiaries within the span of 100 mins.

*”Without publicity there can be no public support and without public support every nation must decay.”*-Benjamin Disraeli. ( Former Prime Minister- UK.) As Covid-19 reached around the globe, we Rotarians found ourselves in a world transformed and testing our ability to adapt. We had to make tough decisions including cancelling club meetings and other events. Despite of it together everyone is placing the public good and welfare first. Though virtual meetings and training programs of new leaders are happening but when our physical presence is required, for pandemic related and other relief activities for the social cause we are at present standing shoulder to shoulder with the local administration to tackle the situation as Covid-19 warrior. So as the same way and style…. Like every year, this year also being the Third Year on *23rd & 27th of August,2020.* *’Eco-Friendly Shree Ganesh Visarjan’ 2020.* the club’s joint flagship project was organised by *Rotary Club of Dombivli Regency* and *Rotary Club of Dombivli Heritage* by creating artificial ponds of Big Water Tanks with RO water for immersion at *Regency Estate Society Complex, MIDC, Dombivli(East) between 4 to 9 pm* All the special arrangements were made available this time for the devotees (beneficiaries) in view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and as per the guidelines and instructions by the local administration all the precautions were taken that:- – devotees not to immerse idols on their own where we specially arranged Two volunteers with PPE suits to do the immersion in the ponds. – All the persons arrived at the immersion project area were provided with masks, hand gloves, sanitizers etc. – Idols installed at home not taller than 2 feet were only accepted for the immersion. – Only 2 persons at the immersion ponds were permitted to avoid crowd. -Procession to mark arrival at immersion of idols was prohibited therefore, no crowd was there while immersion and no noise pollution also And – Most importantly this time, only ‘Shadu'(mud) idols were accepted for immersion and made awareness of try to avoid installing POP idols at home from the environment point of view as the idols don’t get dissolved in water. These norms were strictly followed to carry out the project. The Project was completed successfully mainly because of the wholehearted support and cooperation from the devotees and the hard work done by our rotary volunteers. *Highlights:-* -The project was attended and graced by the district dignitaries who have given their valuable guidance and support to this renowned project were, -Chief Coordinator, *Rtn Milind Kulkarni* – District Secretary, *Rtn Umesh Chavan* – Assistant Governor, *Rtn Dashrath Dongre* – District Secretary, *Rtn Dr. Madhav Baitule* – Districr Treasurer, *Rtn Madhav Khisti* – Group Coordinator, *Rtn.Yogesh Khadke* And -Most importantly, maximum members from both the club’s were present on both the days volunteering the project. – *District Chief Coordinator, Rtn.Milind Kulkarni* has announced that this project will be declared and recognised as the District Thrust Area project which all the club members happily greeted. *-70 nos of Shree Ganesh idols were immersed during this year.* – *Felicitation* were made of the TWO key rotarians of the Project who laid the foundation idea of this project i.e.,past president, *Rtn.
