YOUR WORLDWIDE ROTARY AT WORK
YOUR WORLDWIDE ROTARY AT WORK! http://www.endpolionow.org - When Rotary International pledged to eliminate Polio 30 years ago, there were 360,000 cases a year. With the help of so many, including clubs all over the world, and people like Bill and Melinda Gates, there were only 350 cases last year. We mark the first year there are no cases in Nigeria and only a few in Afghanistan. The final push in Pakistan may see this year as the end of Polio Worldwide. This is an amazing accomplishment and with your donations we can make the “FINAL PUSH” to END POLIO NOW. Plus, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will donate $2 for every $1 you donate so go to http://www.endpolionow.org and donate today!









 
 

 
Elgin Breakfast Rotary Serves Elgin ... and More!
Posted by Mark Billings 
on Dec 01, 2013
 

The Elgin Breakfast Rotary is a small group of committed people who are dedicated to serving primarily Elgin but impacting the region and world through a combination of collaborative projects. Club members fundraise and donate an estimated $20,000 annually to a broad range of community projects. We have also built international relationships in three countries, including Mexico, Ecuador and Brazil through our ongoing commitment to Rotary's Youth Exchange Program. Our students have become true family members as they attend Elgin High School and lead active lives in the community. Below our 2013-14 student Rodolfo Quaggio of Brazil arrives at O'Hare International Airport before beginning his new life in Elgin. Chad Billings (second from r.) is a sophomore at Elgin High School and is the club's 2014-15 outbound student. Image

As part of our Community Service for the 2012-2013 year, several Elgin Breakfast Rotary Club members have been reading to students at Illinois Park Elementary School on Thursday mornings. By joining together with the United Way of Elgin, club members have been part of the Reading Buddies program. Members take turns reading for 30 minutes to small groups of pre-school or kindergarten children. The program helps instill a love of reading and learning in these young students. A total of six club members have participated in the program this year. Club members enjoy their time with the students and are commited to making a contribution to our local community through this effort. Pictured is member Alan Kirk and his son Aaron reading to a group of children.
