Today, over 70 million people are displaced as a result of conflict, violence, persecution, and human rights violations.
Half of them are children.
We refuse to accept conflict as a way of life. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts.
Rotary creates environments of peace
As a humanitarian organization, peace is a cornerstone of our mission. We believe when people work to create peace in their communities, that change can have a global effect.
By carrying out service projects and supporting peace fellowships and scholarships, our members take action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, discrimination, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources.
Our commitment to peacebuilding today answers new challenges: how we can make the greatest possible impact and how we can achieve our vision of lasting change. We are approaching the concept of peace with greater cohesion and inclusivity, broadening the scope of what we mean by peacebuilding, and finding more ways for people to get involved.
Rotary creates environments where peace can happen.
Based on actual results, intelligence, and intuition from implementing the Flag Lease Program, 'The Ulitmate Non For Profit Fundraising Project' is a manual for non-profit professionals and volunteers who want to implement their fundraising project to promote their cause.
Built upon the success of the Flag Lease Project, this summing-up manual provides practical, comprehensive guidance for non-profit fundraising universally. With tips and tools, knowledgeable advice, and real-applied insights from the actual project implementation, this healthy resource addresses the entire spectrum of patriotic fundraising for non-profits.
Bill Smith, Director of COMMUNITY SERVICE, announces that flag maintenance at the shed with SCORE will be tomorrow, Tuesday starting at 8 AM.
If you can spend an hour or two, we would appreciate it.

This week our program will feature Patti Allen who started in Church as a child, and her grandmother played piano and Patti and her brother would sing with her in front of the congregation. She can’t remember NOT doing this.
With more than 20 years of training, performing, and working with kids, 'Kids Who Rock' camps were created to provide an amazing setting for cool kids who love music, arts, theater & fun to express themselves.
Their team of instructors is motivated by their love of music & arts as well as their passion to transfer their knowledge and skills to the students.
Come to the meeting and meet Patti Allen and bring a guest.
