About the Club
A pioneer, by design
Chartered on 10 June 2011, the Rotary E-Club of Bangalore was the first internet-based Rotary club in the region (erstwhile District 3190) and among the first two in all of India. We proved that a club meeting on a screen can change lives on the ground. Our charter name keeps “3190”; today we serve in RI District 3191.

Our Club Banner
Service Above Self
In the Rotary tradition, clubs exchange banners as a token of friendship. Ours celebrates Bengaluru — the Garden City — and carries our charter: Club #83921, chartered in 2011. If we meet on your travels, we'd be honoured to exchange banners.
Built for international service
We pioneered the art of remote, online joint international projects.
Online joint projects
Collaborative learning between schools in India and Bangladesh — entirely online, witnessed by three PDGs across two countries.
Cross-continent culture
A dance-drama performed and delivered live with clubs in Ghana, joined by two District Governors.
Global fellowship leadership
Our members lead global Rotary fellowships, including the Rotary Fellowship of Authors.
Connecting hearts, transforming lives
Wherever you are in the world, there is a way for us to serve together.
