Here are some facts and figures on the age distribution of Rotarians worldwide according to a recent issue of Rotarian magazine:

3% Under the age of 30 9% Between 30-39 21% Between 40-49 29% Between 50-59 22% Between 60-69 17% 70 and over 70 years old

So that means:

68% of all Rotarians around the world are over the age of 50 years old.

And the number of Rotarians over the age of 70 is almost double the number of Rotarians under the age of 40.

HERE IS SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT: Do you know how old Paul Harris was when he founded Rotary over 100 years ago? Paul Harris was 37 years old at the time.
