Open letter from Rotary International Foundation Chairman

Dear Family & Friends of Rotary:

I wish all of you could have been present at the meeting of the UNICEF Executive Board where there were representatives from every region and most key countries in the world.  The Executive Director of UNICEF Ann M. Veneman gave the opening statement where she gave her gratitude and recognition for all Rotary International has been able to do in our Partnership to combat, control in our goal of eradicating Polio.  Yes my family & friends of Rotary I wish you could have heard the different delegations from all areas of the world ask to speak and give gratitude and recognition to Rotary International after I gave my presentation. UNICEF worldwide does recognize our work.  It was an honor to represent Rotary at this important reunion and be able to show these top representatives from UNICEF the value of the Added Credibility offered by a Rotary International that helps to Create Awareness for Our World To Take Action.

We show that we put into practice our motto of Service Above Self.

I Encourage You to Create Awareness & Take Action In Exploring How Rotary & Your Group Might Work Together As Partners.

Your Amigo in Mexico City,

Frank Devlyn
