DESCRIPTION:THOM WEISS - Peace Corp Experience in Kosovo For nearly a decad
 e\, Thom put our core value of service into action by directing the Wiscon
 sin chapter of Rotary Books for the World\, a powerful non-profit that col
 lects and ships used school and library books to developing countries. Ove
 r the years\, his deep commitment to international service also shone thro
 ugh his family's hospitality\, having hosted twelve Rotary Youth Exchange 
 students. [1] However\, Thom’s journey of service took an extraordinary 
 new turn when a presentation at a Rotary meeting inspired him and his wife
 \, Brenda\, to join the Peace Corps. He recently returned from serving in 
 Kaçanik\, Kosovo\, as part of the historic cohort that returned to full g
 lobal service following the pandemic. This day\, Thom joins us to share fi
 rsthand stories\, cultural insights\, and the deep local relationships bui
 lt while living and serving in one of Europe’s youngest nations.  GUEST
