Why I Am A Rotarian
APRIL 1, 2007
In November of 2001, I took my
daughter with me on a Rotary trip to deliver wheelchairs in
Mexico. She was a senior in college at the time. On the way
home, she told me that she couldn't wait to graduate, get a full
time job, and join Rotary.
Last year, she was president of
the Rotaract Club of the South Bay and this year she is the
Rotaract District Governor. My second daughter accompanied me in
2004 on a Rotacare Mission to Guatemala. She came home! from
that trip wanting to become a doctor and is now in the process
of interviewing at Medical Schools.
Rotary has not only changed my
life for the better, but has changed the course of my whole
family. We are a Rotary family!
I've learned in Rotary that what
I give to others comes back to me tenfold. I am strengthened by
each donation I make. I am heartened by each hour I volunteer. I
love the fact that Rotary makes me want to be a better person.
