QUOTE OF THE WEEK
"I see life as both a gift and a responsibility. My responsibility is to use what God has given me to help his people in need." .... by Millard Fuller, Founder of Habitat for Humanity.
AskWard.... If you have a question about Rotary or the club, CLICK HEREto ask Ward, and he will either provide the correct answer, direct to the proper source for the anwser ..... or make something up, when all else fails.
Question: What is one way to grow a Rotary Club in Community and International service.?
Answer: When Rotarians roll up their sleeves and work together to share the weekly and operational tasks of the club "Club Service", they are better equipped to work together for "Community Service", and "World Service"' In short, "Service Above Self". So, look around to see what you can do in Club Service, to help build and grow our club in service to our community and world.
