THIS WEEK'S SPEAKER
NEW MORNING STAR ROTARIAN
 
President Rodney Conn presents Bruce Whitehouse, a Professor of Anthropology at Lehigh University, with his club badge.  Welcome Bruce!
CATALYST4
 
 
 
At our September 12, 2024 club meeting, Diane Elliott, Founder and Executive Director from Catalyst4 spoke to our members about the work of her organization. 
 

"Serving Northampton and Lehigh Counties in Pennsylvania, Catalyst4 provides training in construction and other trades – helping to meet the demand for skilled workers, decrease unemployment, create affordable housing, and eliminate blight.

 

Catalyst4 began in 2019 with the belief that by providing an opportunity for employment, with a livable wage, a sustainable future for individuals and families could be assured.

 

By providing training in construction and other trades, we can help meet the demand for skilled workers, while decreasing unemployment, particularly for those whose past has made securing employment difficult. At the same time, we see the chance to increase the availability of affordable housing, eliminate blight, and develop a sense of community pride."
