Rotary Club of Tulsa

Chaired by Rotarian, Ben Windham, the Rotary Club of Tulsa's International Service Avenue focuses on maintaining goodwill amongst Rotarians around the world through international fellowship and service.

This Avenue of Service helps develop an understanding and appreciation of the differences and similarities that exist between people, whether they live abroad or within our own communities; works to help alleviate hunger, illiteracy and disease where possible; promotes and supports the work of The Rotary Foundation; and works to rid the world of Polio through Rotary's Polio Plus program.
