That vision quickly became reality. Rotary started with one club in 1905, and 6 years later, Rotary outgrew the Americas and spread to Ireland.  By 1922, Rotary had over 200 clubs worldwide, leading them to change the organization’s name to Rotary International. Never before had there been so many people united in a common purpose to better humanity. Despite RI’s exceptional growth and positive mission, Rotarians were only operating at half power.
