My year's theme is "BE THE INSPIRATION" and my focus for this year is to increase membership by telling Rotary's story.  Many people think that Rotary is just another club, well it isn't. Rotary is where neighbors, friends, and problem-solvers share ideas, join leaders and take action to create lasting change.  Rotary promotes PEACE.  Conflict and Violence displace millions of people each year. Half of those killed in conflict are children, and 90% are civilians.We refuse to accept conflict as a way of life. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with skills to resolve conflicts.
Through our service projects, peace fellowships, and scholarships, our members are taking action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, inequality, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts.
Rotary Clubs are there when disaster happens whether at home or in another country, last year(2017) Rotary Clubs donated to Williams Lake, 100 Mile House and Quesnel money to be used in their communities to restore services that they deemed important.  Williams Lake Daybreak Rotary gave their money to replacing communication towers in the Chilcotin, as many of you may know there is no cell service in that area so hamm radios are important.
Williams Lake Daybreak Rotary also provides food through the Starfish Backpack program during the school year, this program has been going for the past few years and it helps families that are struggling with a bit extra food over the weekend, this according to teachers has made a marked improvement in the children that are receiving the packs.  If you would like to make a difference in your community and in the world, please contact me.
