Madeline Latimer heads out this summer to Belgium and a year long Rotary exchange adventure. Here's Madeline with her parents, Sherryl and Mike. | | Posted by Glen Brown Another incredible RYLA South weekend is drawing to a close. Today, more than 100 RYLA students will be doing just that - first participating in a "flash mob" at the Vancouver Art Gallery at noon, to be shown on the Global tv news tonight at 6, and then by serving others in the DownTown EastSide - women's shelter, Salvationa Army, and other worthy agencies. Watch - record- and marvel, as these fantastic young people put their hands and feet where their mouths are, and put Peace through Service to work in Vancouver today. As well, they will be handing out 100th Anniversary of Rotary in BC promotional materials to the passersby and crowd that watches the flash mob.
Thanks for supporting our future!

Check out the Annual Letter from Bill Gates. This is a good news story!! | | Posted by Glen Brown on Nov 20, 2012 
| The eastern area of Kenya where Kyaithani is located has suffered from drought and chronic food shortages for at least the last 15 years. People are subsistence farmers with incomes less than $1/day. Families have insufficient income to send all their children to school and often students arrive at school unfed. Progress is being made through a partnership project of the Rotary Clubs of Sunshine Coast-Sechelt (BC) & Belleville (Ont) and St. Hilda's Anglican church (Sechelt) with the additional support of many individuals. Check out the work that has been done at www.ndandini.blogspot.com or www.ndandini-scholarshipfund.blogspot.com. | | | Posted by Ann Waldo on Aug 01, 2012 Plan on finding Rotary Gold at the 2013 District Conference in Historic Quesnel | | Posted by Terry Umbach on Jul 23, 2012 In March 2012 the Global Grant Project (in which our club was the lead partner) "to provide Water Distribution from the well to six schools and the community garden in Ndandini" delivered the long awaited tractor and bowser. Take a look at some recent photos taken at the village and received from the students at the Kyaithani Secondary School. It is AMAZING what the difference a little water can make in this parched, arid village!

Thanks everyone (club members, other Rotarians, and friends of Rotary and Ndandini) for your moral and financial support. Together we CAN make a difference in our world.
