You’re Invited: District 5950 Safe Space Gathering

Membership Enhancement & Participant Engagement (MEPE)

Focus: Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging

Dear Rotarians and Friends,

You are warmly invited to join us for a special and historic first gathering of the District 5950 Safe Space focused on Membership Enhancement and Participant Engagement, grounded in Rotary’s commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging.

This gathering is intentionally designed as a safe, welcoming, and respectful space where Rotarians and future Rotarians from across District 5950 can come together to connect, share, learn, and engage in meaningful dialogue. Our goal is to strengthen Rotary by ensuring that all participants feel a sense of belonging and that underserved and underrepresented Rotarians are intentionally invited, supported, and encouraged into leadership.

Whether you are a long-time Rotarian, a new member, or someone curious about Rotary, your voice and lived experience matter. This space is for you.

 

Why You Should Join

• Engage in open, respectful conversations about belonging in Rotary

• Learn how Membership Enhancement and Participant Engagement support stronger clubs

• Explore ways to invite and uplift underserved and underrepresented Rotarians, especially into leadership

• Help shape an inclusive future for Rotary clubs in District 5950
