From Our District Governor

Celebrating the Family of Rotary ... More Important Than We Can Imagine

By George Granade

We have all heard about the family of Rotary. I want you to know that our District is truly a family of Rotary. Recently, as you are aware, my older sister passed unexpectedly. You may not know how much it has helped and meant receiving sympathy cards, emails, texts and words of encouragement from fellow Rotarians all across … [more]


DGE André Marria Honored as a Rotary Person of Action: Champion of Inclusion

By Jackie Cuthbert

Our District Governor Elect, André Marria of Thomasville, is one of six Rotary members from around the world to be honored as a Rotary People of Action: Champion of Inclusion for her work to build a culture of inclusion as an advocate and mentor for women and people of color in southern Georgia, U.S.

Rotary members throughout the world are taking action to strengthen and empower historically marginalized and underrepresented communities by improving access to health services, education, economic opportunities, and civic participation.

Since 2005, Marria has worked to bridge cultural divides in her community by bringing those from different backgrounds together to learn about and work together as well as to improve the lives of those in need, including by supporting aspiring entrepreneurs from underserved communities.  [more]

TRF Establishes Two Temporary Relief Funds for Pakistan and Ukraine

By Anne Glenn

As a global humanitarian organization, Rotary continually takes action to help communities in need. In that spirit, The Rotary Foundation has established two temporary funds to support immediate relief efforts in Pakistan and Ukraine. In Pakistan, a severe monsoon season has caused devastating floods and affected millions of people. In Ukraine, the ongoing war has led to a continued humanitarian crisis. 
 
The Pakistan Flood Response Fund will help communities recover from the disaster that displaced people and destroyed crops. It will accept contributions, including District Designated Funds, until 31 December 2023 and distribute grants until 30 June 2024 or until the funds are spent. Any unused money will be transferred to the general Disaster Response Fund.

GRSP and Rotary Working Together

GRSP Fosters Peace through International Scholars

By Katheryne Fields

Georgia Rotary Student Program commemorates the Peace and Conflict Prevention/Resolution Month through education and public awareness as our one-of-a-kind program has been bringing nations together since 1946. GRSP’s purpose for the last 77 years has been to develop potential global leaders who promote understanding and peace around the world.

We believe that peace is possible as we extend one-year ambassadorial scholarships to international college students who spend one year in Georgia colleges and universities learning about the American way of life, receive mentorship from sponsoring Rotary Clubs and build lasting relationships with Rotarians as well as classmates from various countries.

Just ask one of our 3,731 alumni from more than 109 countries around the world. That’s exactly what our one-of-a-kind Rotary program has done. And by the way, did you know that one of our alumni is now a GRSP Trustee in District 6910, and one of last year's alumni, Wade Gunning, has just become a Rotarian in the Atlanta Metro Rotary Club?

Emilio Ochoa Botero of Colombia, an engineering student, will finish his major when he returns to Colombia this summer.  [more]

Working Together to Change the World

By Jackie Cuthbert

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said “Not everybody can be famous but everyone can be great because greatness is determined by service; you only need a heart full of grace and a soul generated by love.” Two Georgia Rotary Student Program scholars spent a week in January serving others in Guatemala. Laury Petit and Camilla Dokkedahl, who attend Columbus State University, joined CSU students along with the Rotary Club of Columbus to teach art and English at the Foncoli school as well as help build smokeless stoves in the area. Columbus Rotarians have been working with the Rotary Club of Antigua as well as other Rotary and NGO partners since 2019 on several projects including Global Grants to bring long term sustainable improvements to a rural community.

North Atlanta Goes Global

By Jon Yaeger

Some 300,000 children / year worldwide die or are maimed because of a lack of a simple and cheap vitamin (vitamin B9 or folic acid) in their mothers’ diets, which can cause fatal or devastating birth defects such as spina bifida. An estimated 75% of these tragedies could be prevented simply by ensuring that women of childbearing age get the vitamin through food fortification or supplements. Thus, approx. 225,000 babies can be saved each year if this initiative is fully adopted.

The Rotary Club of North Atlanta is working to make a difference, on both the club and International levels. On the club level, the club is partnering with a club in Addis Ababa through a five-year global grant project to provide folic acid to women at high risk. Rotary clubs from other districts are participating partners. [more]
