Rotary International President Shekhar Mehta's theme for Rotary Year 2021 - 2022, July 1st 2021 through June 30th, 2022, asks Rotarians to "Serve to Change Lives". |
Over the past 21 years, ShelterBox and Rotary International have worked together to support families with emergency shelter following disaster or conflict.
Disaster, conflict and lack of adequate housing significantly reduces a child’s access to education. Nearly 40 million children a year have their education interrupted by disasters, such as earthquakes and disease.1 And the number of child refugees fleeing conflict and extremism, violence or disaster has risen to over 13 million in recent years. 2
Through the provision of shelter, we are contributing to Rotary’s wider efforts to strengthen the capacity of communities to provide basic education and tackle illiteracy. Shelter is more than a physical structure: it is one of many factors that can increase a child’s access to education.
Rotary International has announced that more than 20,000 service-minded people from around the world will gather in Houston for Rotary’s 113th annual international convention on June 4-8, 2022.
I have come across a lot of people who feel there is no room for them to serve in Rotary. This should not be the case. We are leaders and experts in our vocations. Club leadership has an obligation to continually listen to our members for new ideas and find service opportunities that are personally and professionally rewarding to them. We need to adopt a participant-centered approach to running our clubs. Every encounter is an opportunity to show others what Rotary can do and what they can do with us.
The Rotary Endowment Fund is the long range fund in which the principal - that which you donate - is never spent. The earnings generated by the Fund are used to make a positive and lasting difference in people’s lives.
