In December of 2005 an initial group of nine people got together in order to discuss the possibility and the benefits of forming an English language Rotary Club in Ukraine's capital„ Kyiv. Over the months that followed they held weekly meetings and began to find like-minded individuals, both Ukrainian nationals as well as members from the ex-patriot community, to join what would become Kyiv's first English language speaking multinational club including members from: Canada, the Netherlands, the United States of America, and Ukraine.

On April 12, 2006 the District Governor of Rotary International„ Jan Wrana, visited Kyiv to meet with members of Kyiv's other three Rotary Clubs: Kyiv City, Kyiv Center and Kyiv Pechersk, as well as members of the initiative group. This added impetus for the Kyiv Multinational Rotary Club to submit its paperwork to Rotary International and to District 2230 which is composed of Poland, Ukraine and Belarus.

At the end of Apri1 2006 a number of the club's members traveled to Yalta in order to both attend the President-Elect Training Seminar (PETS) and also to help the three Crimean Clubs celebrate their 10th Anniversaries. This hip provided not only good opportunity for club members to better understand.  This trip provided not only good opportunity for club members to better understand the way Rotary functions, but to network with other members from Belarus, Poland and Ukraine in an atmosphere that was pleasant and full of camaraderie.

On the weekend of May 20, the Club's President, Bill Atamanchuk and the Governor's Special Adviser, Roman Shwed, traveled to Kracow Poland for the District Conference. At this meeting they presented the necessary documentation needed in order to receive it's Charter. On June 12, 2006 Rotary International's President Carl Wilhem Stenhammer visited Kyiv to attend a joint meeting of Kyiv's RC's and to Chaster our RC and attend a banquet in honor of the occasion.

Our club became the 40th RC in Ukraine and is past of the 2230 District which includes Belarus, Poland and Ukraine. More information about the entire district can be found at the District web site at: http://www.rotary.org.pl/.
