⚓🇨🇴 Rotary Fellowship Across Borders 🇺🇸⚓

What an incredible experience yesterday as our Rotarians Richelle and Suen gathered to welcome the Colombian Naval sailing ship during its visit to New Orleans!

The ship proudly displayed Rotary flags from the Rotary Club of Cartagena, Colombia, and we had the opportunity to tour the vessel, exchange Rotary banners, and strengthen the bonds of international Rotary friendship.

This visit highlights a long-standing partnership between Rotarians in the United States and Cartagena. For more than a decade, Rotary clubs have worked together on international grant projects supporting a Rotary-founded children’s hospital in Cartagena, helping to build an operating room and a cancer center that continue to serve children and families in need.

A special thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this memorable exchange possible. Moments like these remind us that Rotary’s spirit of Service Above Self truly connects communities around the world.

📸 Enjoy some highlights from this remarkable visit!
