Mark your calendars! On September 12, 2023, we have the privilege of hosting the District Governor Mark Merriam at our East Honolulu club. This visit underscores the importance and impact our club has within the broader Rotary family.
The District Governor's visit provides us with an opportunity to showcase our current projects, celebrate our accomplishments, and gain insights into the broader objectives of Rotary for the year. It is also an excellent occasion for members to familiarize themselves with the District's vision, ask questions, and reinforce the bonds that tie all Rotary Clubs together.
Basic education and literacy is one of Rotary’s seven areas of focus. We know that basic education and literacy are essential for reducing poverty, improving health, encouraging community and economic development, and promoting peace.
Consider these facts: If all women completed primary education, there would be 66% fewer maternal deaths. Our Rotary goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.
We support education for all children and literacy for children and adults.
