It's a good day at Rotary when a new member is inducted. Andy was introduced to us by President Coreen, and she said if there was anything she could say about Andy is that he is all about 'fairness'. We are so lucky that Andy has chosen to be a member of our Rotary Club of Port Moody.
Welcome Andy......
He did join willingly ;o)

How Rotarians in Poland are Assisting Ukrainian Refugees
Poland has taken in more than a million refugees and Rotary clubs all over the country created a central account for contributions.
- The Rotary Club of Olsztyn is collecting and managing donations for more than 150 Ukrainians who are staying at Ostróda Camp, a conference and recreation center. Most of the occupants are unaccompanied children whose parents stayed in Ukraine. Four cars full of supplies including food, clothes, toiletries, and toys were donated hours after the center began accepting refugees.
- Members of the Rotary Club of Zamosc worked with a member of the Rotary Club of Wolsztyn, who owns a medical supply distribution company, to coordinate a partnership with other organizations to collect supplies and equipment.
- The Rotary Club of Gdansk Centrum is providing accommodations for four refugee families, and members who own businesses are offering them work.
This is Rotary, People of Action! Thank you for your support of the victims of the war in Ukraine.
