Our club's meeting program this week will feature the annual Four Way Test contest by area students

 Community Service is exactly what the name implies — projects and activities the club undertakes to improve community life. There are many projects in McKinney in which our Rotary Club volunteers have been involved: Scott Johnson Middle School, Bonnie Wenk Park, scholarships, and more.

The April Rotary Theme 
 is  Maternal and Child Health Month
 
Every day mothers risk their lives giving birth and millions of children die each year from treatable, preventable causes. At least 7 million children under the age of five die each year due to malnutrition, poor health care, and inadequate sanitation. To help reduce this rate, Rotary provides immunizations and antibiotics to babies, improves access to essential medical services, and supports trained health care providers for mothers and their children.
 
Rotary’s projects ensure sustainability by empowering the local community to take ownership of health care training programs. Maternal and Child Health Care is also recognized as one of Rotary’s Six Areas of Focus.

THINGS TO PONDER!
 
The Four-Way Test is an adaptive process. It takes into account everyone's point of view and concerns, as well as their needs and wants.
The process is designed to build goodwill and earn trust so a particular end result is mutually beneficial, sustainable, and has scalable outcomes.
 
 Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
 
I put my scale in the bathroom corner and that's where the little liar will stay until it apologizes.
 
 
 

Tracy Pounders says...our program Wednesday will be the annual Four Way Test Contest

 
The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and Rotarians recite it at club meetings:
Of the things we think, say, or do
 

Service Above Self!
