President's Message
Maurice Powe

 

Happy Mother’s Day to all our mothers. As we celebrate and honor mothers, my mind turns to service. How can we serve others? What can I do to make a difference in our community? My mother has shown me that it does not take a huge budget or a a lot of people to impact a community. It only takes a willingness to serve. Her willingness to feed families in need and to serve her church with small acts of kindness continues to change lives in real ways. Following this example Jack Toner and I served at the Friends of the Homeless on May 2, 2022. I hope others will join us on June 6, 2022, as we strive to Serve to Change Lives.   

I want to make a special plea to all our members to contribute to the Rotary Foundation. We have almost 75% participation so far.

If you have not contributed, please contact Jack to make your donation.

Support Rotary Foundation

 
Three ways to support our Rotary Foundation
 
Every November, we celebrate The Rotary Foundation. Your support and generous gifts to the Foundation make it possible for us to be people of action and engage in life-changing projects worldwide. Here are three ways you can help maximize the effectiveness of our year-end giving campaigns and increase the amount of good we can do:
  1. Encourage your members to make a gift to the Foundation on Giving Tuesday, which is 1 December. Share our video message
  2. Give the gift of Rotary this holiday season. Share our digital flyer with members and potential donors.
  3. Learn more about our new peer-to-peer fundraising tool, Raise for Rotary, where you can create fundraising pages that are easy to share with family and friends through social media and email.
