We’re through October, and Kobla and I have visited the majority of our clubs and winding down on the visits. What a great opportunity to share Rotary with others! I am amazed to see that each club, each member is working in his or her way to serve the community and the world.

I also mentioned that we may not remember our induction ceremony, but we surely remember our sponsor. We are forever grateful that he or she cared enough to invite us to share his or her passion.

on the subject of
"Parenting and Parents: What is Polio in children & How can it be treated"
From Iran to Colombia, girls around the world are fighting for one thing – equality.
Women's and girls’ freedom, choices and human rights have continued to be policed by governments and societies. Generations have fought to have equal rights, and while huge progress has been made, millions of girls around the world still can’t live freely. Stand with the women and girls protesting for their rights. Take action today.
The problem: Across the world, girls are fighting for their right to choose what to become, to speak and live freely, and to control their own bodies.
Who can help: To help every girl unlock her potential and achieve gender equality, world leaders must invest in empowering women and girls.
What you can do: Stand with girls protesting around the world and join millions of Global Citizens in calling for action on International Day of the Girl.
TAKE THE CHALLENGE!!
