Attorney Paul P. Harris, a lawyer in Chicago, founded Rotary International. It began as a fellowship for businessmen to network beyond the confines of politics and religion. The organization expanded rapidly, with clubs established in major American cities and then globally. As it grew internationally, its name evolved from the Rotary Club to the International Association of Rotary Clubs and, ultimately, Rotary International. The organization focuses on humanitarian service and global peace, working closely with the United Nations and establishing Rotary Centers for International Studies in Peace and Conflict Resolution at various universities worldwide.
