The Rotary Foundation Citation for Meritorious Service
This award is given for demonstrated active service to Rotary's Foundation over a period of more than one year. The Trustees may recognize one Rotarian from each district with the Citation for Meritorious Service each year.
The Rotary Foundation Distinguished Service Award
Four complete Rotary years after receiving the Citation of Meritorious Service, a Rotarian becomes eligible for the Distinguished Service Award. Because this is the Foundation's highest service recognition, a recipient's exemplary service to the Foundation must extend beyond the district level and over an extended period of time.

This award recognizes outstanding contibutions to the polio eradication effort and encourages participation in the final eradication work.
Rotary International Service Above Self Award

This is Rotary International's highest honor for individual Rotarians. A maximum of 150 recipients may be selected each year. Current and immediate past district governors, and current and past RI directors may nominate candidates for this award.
