July marks the beginning of the Rotary year and the transition of new leadership at the club, district, and international levels. "Transition Month" is one of two themes recognized in July with Maternal and Child Health being the other. This theme aligns with Rotary's commitment to improving the health and well-being of mothers and children around the world.
