Wearing the Rotary emblem

Transcript :

The Rotary badge, commonly known as “the Wheel,” is worn, usually on the lapel or similar position by all Rotary members around the world.

This badge is officially presented on the day of induction of a new member.

Honorary members are also allowed to wear it.

Its role is twofold:

• show membership in Rotary and pride in being a Rotarian
• identify other Rotarians at random at professional or friendly meetings

Note that wearing the PHF pin does not exempt one from wearing the Rotary badge. Indeed, the PHF pin is a distinction that can be awarded to any deserving person. It does not necessarily mark membership of Rotary

Rotary-approved suppliers can provide badges in various sizes.

Some are magnetic and helps wearing them on various types of clothing.
