CC: 2020-21 district governors, district membership chairs, and Rotary coordinators


Dear club president-elect,

Beginning 1 July, it will be easier than ever for Rotary clubs to set and report goals for the Rotary Citation. Previously, clubs had to achieve specific goals, which changed every year, and report them in various online Rotary tools. 

In 2020-21, you’ll be able to go into Rotary Club Central and choose goals that are relevant to your club. You’ll need to achieve at least 13 goals out of 25 to receive the citation. While a few of the goals are data-generated, such as membership numbers and Rotary Foundation giving, most of them you can report by marking “Achieved” in Rotary Club Central. 

The changes not only simplify the process of setting and reporting goals, but they also make long-term progress easier to track because the goals will stay the same from year to year. 

If you have any questions, write to riawards@rotary.org.

Sincerely, 
Julia Donohoe
