On September 23rd, 2024, Rotary Club of Brampton members joined the other Brampton clubs for the annual Cowboy Casserole lunch. This event raised funds for Wellspring Cancer Support.
Turnout was excellent. We had a packed agenda. The highlight of the event was our inspiring guest speaker, Orlando Bowen. Orlando shared his life story, which was very moving. He spoke about the obstacles he has overcome, including the incident which ended his football career with the Argos, and led to his life's work. Orlando shared a message of humanity and forgiveness. He explained his calling to make a difference in the world and how Rotarians are committed to collective service to the community. He discussed the importance of collective action or collective effort. "Umbuntu, I am because you are. I am because I will".
