Service Above Self

In  1911, the second Rotary convention, in Portland, Oregon, USA, approved

​

He Profits Most Who Serves Best

​

as the Rotary motto. 

At the 1950 Rotary International Convention in Detroit, Michigan, USA, two slogans were formally approved as the official mottoes of Rotary:

​

He Profits Most Who Serves Best

and

Service Above Self

​

The 1989 Council on Legislation established Service Above Self as the principal motto of Rotary because it best conveys the philosophy of unselfish volunteer service.

except:  Rotary’s two official mottoes
