I hope that each of you had a Blessed and Joyous Holiday with family and friends. There is no time better spent than with those we love. As we start the down side part of the Rotary Year, 2021-22 I have to say, “There will be NO down side to it.” There is a lot planned with:
District Service Projects-End Human Trafficking, Empower Girls, Benches, Fighting Hunger
Leadership training- Grant Training, District Assembly
Every year since 2010, January has been proclaimed as National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month. Take time in January to learn more about human trafficking and action steps your Rotary Club and each Rotarian can take to prevent human trafficking.
