The world around us is ever changing.  It has been over one year now that COVID-19 changed the way we interact with each other.  The immigration crisis is changing the way we govern our borders.  And climate change is affecting all of us.  So, as with Rotary, we must all adapt to these changes.  Rotary recently enacted a 7^th Area of Focus – Supporting the Environment.  This is an area that every living person must work on, because it ultimately affects us all, rich & poor. 

 

April is Maternal & Child Health Month.  An estimated 5.9 million children under the age of five die each year because of malnutrition, inadequate health care, and poor sanitation — all of which can be prevented. Rotary members expand access to quality care, so mothers and children everywhere can have the same opportunities for a healthy future.

 

 

I look forward to seeing everyone at DISTRICT CONFERENCE!!
