This week at the Rotary International Assembly in Orlando, Florida, Rotary International President-Elect Stephanie Urchick announced her theme for the 2024-25 Rotary year: THE MAGIC OF ROTARY.
Bethlehem Downtown Rotary Club mourns the loss of one of our members, Bishop Hopeton Clennon.
Hopeton is our Immediate Past President. It is difficult to find the words to honor a man who always had the right words at the right moment. To have known him is to have been blessed by his great smile and infectious laugh, and to have felt comfort and peace every time you spoke.
Morning Star Rotary will be working at the Bethlehem Emergency Sheltering on three evenings during the coming winter months. If you are able to assist with this important project, please contact Ginny Wolkoff at ginny4wolkoff@gmail.com for available dates. We will need servers, dish washers, and people to monitor the showers. The Bethlehem Emergency Sheltering is located at Christ Church UCC at 75 E Market Street, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18018
The Women of Action team of Rotary volunteers will be returning to Kenya on our 2nd humanitarian trip January 28th for two weeks. The team will be reviewing the progress of The Rotary Foundation Global Grant at the Ngaremara Dispensary and exploring Phase II options of the project.
As part of this trip we will also be conducting additional service projects including a menstrual health project at the Ngaremara Girls Secondary School. Many of the girls that attend this school live in the area served by the dispensary. This project will begin to create an environment where girls feel supported during their menstrual cycle so they can attend classes and not miss out on their education. The project will include both distributing sanitary pads and basic education in menstrual hygiene. We hope that you will join us in supporting this project by donating to our Be The Good Fund 2.0. You may make a tax-deductible donation by clicking here.
We are grateful for your interest and support of our work in Kenya. We plan to keep you updated via email on the continuing work of the projects. You may also follow us on Facebook @MorningStarRotary
