November: Creating Lasting Impact Through The Rotary Foundation

November is Rotary Foundation Month, a wonderful opportunity to reflect on what we can accomplish when we come together to make a difference.

Our district's World’s Largest Polio Walk activities and our November 5 District 6420 Foundation Dinner offered two different opportunities to celebrate Rotary's impact. Both remind us of something important: Rotary's impact is greater than any one of us can create alone.

ROTARIANS WANTED! No Superhero Cape Required!

Have a talent, an idea, or a little time to share? District 6420 could use YOU!

Rotary works because people step up, bring their talents to the table, and work together to make good things happen. And sometimes, making an even bigger impact starts with one person saying, "I could help with that!"

We're looking for a few good Rotarians who would like to put their skills to work beyond their own club. Could one of these opportunities be a fit for you?
