✨ February • Moving Forward Together

Our February message is live.

As we welcomed the Lunar New Year and stepped into the Year of the Horse, we’ve been reflecting on strength, resilience, and steady forward movement.

February is also Rotary’s Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention Month. It is a reminder that peace begins in everyday ways: in listening, in empathy, and in making space for one another.

One line from the Super Bowl has stayed with us:
“The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”

In our work at the Rotary Club of Mental Health & Wellness, love looks like reducing stigma, building connection, investing in youth leadership, and continuing to serve with heart.

We’ve also shared updates on fellowship across clubs, Rotary Youth Exchange interviews, and our Be Kind Scholarship now open.

You can read the full February message here: https://tinyurl.com/RCMHW-021726

Here’s to moving forward, gently and together. 💛
