A Rotary Win Against Polio

Rotary pulled off the big win last week when District 5370 raised $4,400 for the fight against polio through the Edmonton Oil Kings fundraiser.

Whyte Avenue Rotary once again claimed bragging rights by being the top producer, selling 100 tickets for the event.

And while End Polio Now came out with the big win, our Oil Kings didn't fair so well, suffering an epic 8 - 0 loss against the Swift Current Broncos.

March 6th Who's Who

Who's Who evenings are the perfect way to get to know your fellow Whyte Ave Rotarians.

Our next Tuesday meeting will feature presentations by Mike Brandigan and Steve McRory.

Come hear the stories behind the people at this fun and informative session.

R.E.P Closes in on 500 Placements

It was inspiring to hear the stories of just a few of the nearly 500 persons living with disabilities who now have rewarding jobs thanks, in part, to the Rotary Employment Partnership (R.E.P).

Wendy McDonald, Chief Operating Officer of Inclusion Alberta, shared her experiences, both professionally and as a parent of a child with a developmental disability, at last Tuesday's meeting.

Wendy also led us through a simple exercise to help identify those persons within our own spheres that might benefit from participating in R.E.P. as an employer.

The partnership has proven to be highly beneficial to employers, providing them with a pool of carefully matched candidates that has repeatedly led them to discover exceptional employees that otherwise might have been completely overlooked. If you want to hear some inspirational stories of the success on all sides of the R.E.P equation, you can read the whole story and view a really moving video on their website.

As the Partnership closes in on its 500 job placement, it's important that Rotary continue to actively support this important initiative. Contact Wendy McDonald to learn how you can be a part of the Rotary Employment Partnership.
