The District Connection
 
October is Economic and Community Development Month.   According to RI, "nearly 1.4 billion employed people live on less than $1.25 a day.  Rotary members promote economic and community development and reduce poverty in underserved communities through training, well-paying jobs, and access to financial management institutions. Projects range from providing people with equipment to vocational training. Rotary members work to strengthen local entrepreneurs and community leaders, particularly women, in impoverished communities. "

Join us for the October 13th Fireside Chat with DG Roger Paschal
 
DG Roger Paschal is inviting all District 5790
Rotary Members and their guests to the
October 13th Virtual Fireside Chat at 7 PM
 
This months Fireside Chat with DG Roger Paschal will feature Rotary's 35 year fight to end polio worldwide. Starting in 1979 with its first project in the Philippines through to today we've reduced polio cases by 99.9 percent. But, as most Rotarians will tell you, "we are not done" and will not be done until the final two countries of Afghanistan and Pakistan are declared "polio free" by the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization. The total elimination of polio is just as important now as it was before Covid 19 changed our world. Why?
