“Women of Action” is coming up quickly on May 31st. Are you going?
This District 5360 event is planned by women in our district (Rotarians AND Rotaractors) who want to celebrate the work of women Rotarians and in doing so attract other women who do not know about and invite them to consider Rotary.
Women of Action will celebrate a great woman, Marmie Hess. We will also recognize the work of many great Rotarian women in our district. The keynote speaker is Celeste Mergens, the founder and CEO of Days for Girls International. Days for Girls is changing the status quo, through menstrual care solutions, health education, and income-generation opportunities. In less than 10 years, DfG has reached one million women and girls in 110+ countries on 6 continents. Rotarians in Canada and the USA are adopting Days for Girls as their projects both locally and internationally..jpg)
The Rotary Club of Calgary Olympic is leading the way in supporting this evening moving their regular meeting to the Women of Action event on May 31st.
Come and join in a fun opportunity to become informed and educated about the life-changing work that women Rotarians do in our community and internationally.
Of course, this event is open to men and others who don’t know about Rotary. Perhaps these are the people who should hear what Celeste has to say mainly because women tend to NOT speak about this subject. So come and BE IN THE KNOW!
