Thank you to the Bandon Rotary Club for inviting me, as Miss Coos County, to share my Community Service Initiative, Menomentum. It was an honor to speak with community members of all ages and backgrounds about the importance of menopause awareness, education, and research. One of my favorite parts of the conversation was seeing high school students, an OB/GYN Doctor, community leaders, and postmenopausal women all engaging in the same discussion, proving that menopause is not just a women’s issue, but a community conversation. By creating spaces for education and open dialogue, we can reduce stigma, increase understanding, and empower future generations with knowledge. Thank you for welcoming me and supporting this important mission. 💜✨
