We are all so very fortunate to belong to an organization whose mission is simply about “doing good in the world”. This weekend I experienced so much good from my Rotary family that it was overwhelming! I am so very grateful to the Rotary Club of Madison West Towne-Middleton for your support, your encouragement, your assistance and your unfailing commitment to service. Well over half of the WTM members assisted in making our District Conference an event that fulfilled the goals of inspiring, motivating and celebrating.
Thank you for the honor of receiving the Resolution which provides a gift of $1,000 to educate students in Oliveras, Guatemala. Nothing could make me happier or prouder!
Our Rotary Club has touched my life and my heart in so many ways. Your friendship has made my life better and has made me a better person. With great pride, I know I belong to The Greatest Rotary Club in the World!!
Please let me know of any events or special situations in our fellow Rotarians' lives where a card, flowers, or a plant would be appropriate for their situation.
