The Rotary Leadership Institute, a grassroots coalition of Rotary districts throughout the world, developed a learning seminar for all members, including current leaders of Rotary Clubs. Established in 1992, RLI has become a worldwide organization with divisions in every continent of the world. Attendees will learn about: the origins of Rotary International and how RI differs from The Rotary Foundation (TRF); how Grants can fund your projects both local and global; how to increase membership; what is Public Image and why it’s so important; and many others!
The next RLI will be held at the Benton Community Foundation in Corvallis on January 31st/February 1st. RLI Corvallis is $200 and is inclusive of two (2) lunches, a dinner event and a continental breakfast on Sunday. The Institute begins at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, January 31st and ends not later than 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 1, 2026.
