DG SANDY MORTENSEN'S MONTHLY MESSAGE
How do you connect/communicate your club’s story and events? Post the story/info on your club’s website/Facebook page, and send the link to Bev Mendel to post (office@rotary5450.org). The District Newsletter, Club Events and District Facebook pages are there to help promote your Club’s successes. Your Club’s website is the face of your club, what you do, and what you have to offer to potential members.

The Family of Rotary wants to ask every Rotary club to arm yourselves with the latest information on the danger of plastic to our environment. Let’s practice “Will it be beneficial to all concerned?” when it comes to communicating why we need to become ambassadors for our children’s future. Let us hear from you. Let’s start a dialogue!!

Water in plastic bottles – it takes 450 years for a plastic water bottle to decompose, and we throw away 1.4 billion daily.

Responding to Flooding in Eastern Africa
In Ethiopia, severe flooding and conflict have forced people to leave their homes. A ShelterBox team is deployed and working to initially support 2,000 families in the overcrowded collective centers with critical supplies to help families start rebuilding their lives.
International Literacy Day, September 8, 2018, is celebrated internationally, not just by Rotary. Literacy skills broadly includes knowledge and competencies required for employment and careers, particularly technical and vocational skills. Focusing on youth and adults within the lifelong learning framework, fast-advancing digital technology are transforming ways in which people work, live and learn, and are generating new skill demands.
