Sven Rabe takes over the scepter at the Suhler Rotarians!

Prießnitzstraße 20c, 98527 Suhl, Deutschland - The Suhler Tivoli was the scene of a solemn event on July 2, 2025: Sven Rabe, an experienced corporate fanner from Suhl-Linsenhof, was appointed the new president of the Suhler Rotary Club. He steps into the footsteps of Jörg Knüpper, a committed clinic surgeon who was allowed to steer the club's fortunes last year. The handover of the relay rod took place in a festive framework and at the same time marks the 33rd year of the Rotary Club in Suhl.

The change at the top of the club traditionally takes place annually at the end of June and the beginning of July. The Rotary Club Suhl sees itself as a network of people in responsible positions that pull together together to promote social and humanitarian projects. A local commitment that is deeply rooted in the history of this global organization.

A look back at the history of Rotary

Rotary was founded on February 23, 1905 by Paul P. Harris in Chicago and is the world's first service club. His goal: to bring people together from a wide variety of professions and backgrounds to exchange ideas and make changes together. This also happens in Suhl, but the international structure has taken a particularly remarkable course. In the past, the “Rotarians” actively participated in the establishment of the United Nations and contributed to reconciliation after the Second World War in various countries. It is noteworthy that Rotary was prohibited in Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain and Japan, but the members continued to meet.

Large milestones were also the global vaccination campaigns against paralysis of children, which began in 1979 and have since saved millions of children in different countries. These impressive achievements have shaped the humanitarian work of Rotary International and continue to act.

a new chapter under Sven Rabe

With Sven Rabe as a new president, the members are optimistic and willing to set new accents. Rabe will certainly bring in his experience in the field of corporate renovations to develop innovative projects and strategies that further strengthen the club's local commitment. The challenges that will bring the coming months and years are diverse, but with a strong team at his side, the confidence is great that meaningful changes can be initiated.

More information about the activities of the Suhler Rotary Club can be found on the official website, which is responsible for Jörg Knüpper. There, interested parties can also find out about the various projects and initiatives who are under the motto "help people who are the most necessary".
