Approved by Rotary International criteria, this Fellowship was organized in 1988 at the Philadelphia Convention by 57 Rotarians, the Paul Harris 711 Club, (a Foundation for the preservation of the place where Rotary was born in 1905), and the District 6450 Rotary Club of Blue Island Memorial Committee (a Fred Otto and the Japanese Lantern at Comely bank. Click to enlarge.Foundation organized to maintain the grave site of Rotary Founder and First Club President Silvester Schiele; and construct a monument honoring Rotary and a walkway honoring RI Presidents.)

 

The objective of this fellowship is to advocate and promote the collection of Rotary club and Rotary International heritage and history; to encourage activity by others devoted to the preservation, growth and appreciation of the service club movement; to keep alive the mutual friendships created by Harris, Schiele, Shorey and Loehr, who first met in Room 711 of the Unity Building in Chicago; and, to exchange information and Rotary Club, District and Rotary International heritage and history, through the fellowship publication and our website.

Room 711 was saved....

Now, there is an opportunity... To preserve COMELY BANK as the center of the history of Rotary.

Become a member of our Rotary Fellowship

The Rotary Heritage and History International Fellowship of Rotarians (RHHIF) was approved by the 1987-88 Board of Rotary International. The fellowship operates in accordance with Rotary International policy and procedures, but the fellowship is not an agency of, or controlled by, Rotary International. The object of the fellowship is to advocate and coordinate the collection and preservation of information and memorabilia related to the heritage and history of Rotary. Members of the fellowship voluntarily compile, edit and publish (on the internet, in newsletters, by correspondence and verbally at gatherings of Rotarians) their views and opinions on the development of the service club movement. Neither Rotary International nor the fellowship takes responsibility for the historical accuracy of these efforts.
