Aloha Rotarians,
It was a GRAND morning at our regular club meeting. OUR FIRST HAWAIIAN DISTRICT GOVERNOR and our FIRST HAWAIIAN GLOBAL SCHOLAR. Nalani Flinn, DG, shared a heartwarming and motivating story of her life and how she became involved with Rotary and why she stays. Her mission is to be a role model to transform lives in the Waianae area, where she lives. She is focused on the 2020 National Rotary Convention, which will take place here in Waikiki, and urges us to bring in at least one new member to share our SERVICE ABOVE SELF, social, and successes of our clubs, as we work in our communities and in the world. IMUA (move forward). When you see a canoe of six people, ready to start to paddle, paddles are up and the call is made: IMUA - move forward. And that is what we must do in our clubs.
Her Bide Ride Project is called RIDE, SO OTHER CAN WALK: it raises money for Polio Plus.
Nalani was accompanied by Doreen Higa, AG, and Sandy her Secretary. WE had a full house with most of our Rotarians and friends in attendance. Welcome back, Kurt Rhoney !. Nalani inducted JANE LAWTON back into the club.
Kiara Kealoha, our Global Scholar, was introduced. She is off to London to study Environmental Science, Political and Environment. She is passionate about protecting and revitalizing earth's natural resources. and has served as the Communications and Community Outreach Coordinator for Hawaii Green Growth, a public-private partnership that is advancing Hawaii's 2030 sustainability mandate.. She is a graduate of Kamehameha School and Harvard.
