Our concentration is supporting the communities of the northern Caribbean but our humanitarian service projects reach across the world.
Support is needed for the recovery efforts by Rotarians in St. Vincent. The urgently needed supplies such as water, blankets, shelter are all available locally but funding is required from them to be purchased and delivered to the refugees. If you would like to help, the Disaster Network of Assistance Rotary Action Group (dna-rag.com) are collecting and distributing funds on behalf of Rotary District 7030.
The Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunset is a loyal partner with us in the Butterfly StoryBook. The club organized a presentation event for all their story writers where all the E-Club Butterfly certificates were distributed. In addition, each participant received a publication of short stories on the theme of the Rotary Four Way Test provided by RC St. Martin Sunset. A video of the event is below.

Please join us in congratulating the Rotaract Club of Port-au-Prince Champ de Mars for their winning entry to the R.O.A.R Competition!
If you missed what R.O.A.R. is about, it means Rotaract Orators Addressing Rotary. It is an oratory competition designed to support and encourage Rotaractors in public speaking. This year's competition asked Rotaractors to discuss how they would approach a critical issue that affects one of the target groups from the Rotaract District Project - T.E.A.M. (teens, elderly, adults (young) and mothers).
Congratulations to Port-au-Prince Champ de Mars!
Happy New “Butterfly” Year!

To celebrate Membership month members of the eClub were encouraged to visit with local clubs in their areas and report on the visits. Each week we featured a different region of our membership and clubs in their area. This video summarizes those visits. We learned a lot about ourselves and other clubs, connecting the world through Rotary.
Roger & Diana with Rotary Club of North Cotswolds, Saturday September 7 at the Cooperative Supermarket in Bourton on the Water. Raised almost £400 and the club voted to make a total donation of £1,000.00!
The countries represented in the video were countries represented by our members in the early days!
A diverse group!
And the music is the Rotary Anthem, so listen carefully!
