One Rotary Summit

You may be asking yourself – What is One Rotary Summit?

It is training, coordinated by our Rotary Zone 28-29 team, and facilitated by our own District 6270.  It is focused on the relationships among Public Image, The Rotary Foundation / Humanitarian Service, and Membership.  The objective is to solidify Rotary’s 2018-19 annual theme of Be the Inspiration and the new Rotary Public Image Campaign: People of Action.  About ½ of the time will be devoted to idea sharing and action development in small groups. Our goal is that people get to know other Rotarians from our District and share ideas that they can take back to their clubs to do the work of Rotary in an even better way to implement the theme and campaign.

(Some of you who have been Rotarians for many years may remember the Rotary Fall Seminars.  District 6270 has replaced Fall Seminar with One Rotary Summit.)

Water and Sanitation - What Rotary IS Doing and CAN Do
Global and District grants for Rotary District 6270 have been very successful in the past because they have involved local Rotary Club members. Our District is embarking on some larger Global Grants for water and sanitation projects around the world. Clubs in District 6270 are joining together to leverage and maximize our efforts. Past District Governor Rick Debe wants to bring members up to date on current projects and present the new partnership opportunities available. He will be guest speaker at Whitnall Park Rotary Club on Tuesday, October 16.
 
Our goal in Rotary is to be “People of Action.”  His presentation will help you find your part in this future initiative. Join us for lunch and the program!

Congo Helping Hands
 
Guest speaker at Whitnall Park Rotary Club on September 25 was Jeff Mullins, a Roman Catholic missionary with Congo Helping Hands. Congo Helping Hands is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) that works in the Democratic Republic of Congo in central Africa. It is a non-profit Christian organization that works in partnership to improve the quality of life through human development in health, education, agriculture, and microeconomics. Jeff has been working with this organization for the last 12 years. He is from West Allis and attends Mary Queen of Heaven RC parish. Jeff’s primary mission is the Mpandeli Centers in the Kasai, a group of schools for the physically and mentally handicapped. Recently they have been providing emergency food for the war-torn areas of the Kasai. Jeff just recently returned after providing food for over 5,000 people. His briefing was very informative and corrected many misperceptions about the Congo.
