Wishing everyone a meaningful Independence Day 🇵🇭 from beautiful Kaohsiung, Taiwan!

​We are proud to join many Rotarians from our District for the Rotary International Convention (RICON) in Taipei 🇹🇼, which is set to begin in 2 days.

​Deepest thanks to Rtn. Bimbo Gabor, our RICON Promotions Chair, for his outstanding leadership in promoting this event. (At least 41 Rotarians from our District are officially registered.)

​As we celebrate the culmination of this Rotary year and welcome the next, we hope to connect with as many Rotarians as possible.

Let's make the most of the friendships and memories waiting to be made here!

Praying for the safety of everyone. 🙏 🤲

A powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake has shaken the Mindanao region and triggered a tsunami warning, according to Phivolcs. To our brothers and sisters in Mindanao, we stand with you in prayer and hope.

30 DAYS TO A NEW ROTARY YEAR

​Before the gavel drops on a brand-new Rotary year, let's make sure our sails are set. If your Club hasn't done so yet, now is the time to gather for your Strategic Planning session.

​Planning isn't just about setting dates; it’s about maximizing our strengths, tackling our weaknesses, spotting opportunities, and ensuring our goals beat in rhythm with the District’s and RI's vision.

Kudos and thanks to the Clubs that have already mapped out their year (photos below from the Clubs' own posts are just some)!

To the Clubs hitting the planning boards this month—Godspeed!

​Remember: Failing to plan is planning to fail.

Let's finish strong and start even stronger!
