Open Door
Open Door connects over 60 international women’s associations worldwide.
The concept was founded in 1980 by Elisabeth Sammann.
While traveling abroad with her husband, a Rotarian, Elisabeth was inspired by the hospitality extended by fellow Rotarians in every city they visited.
Her goal was to create a similar support system for members of international women’s associations.
Today, Open Door ensures our members have a sister club to welcome them almost anywhere they travel or relocate.
