Dear


We invite you all to open the latest issue (#103) of Our Foundation Magazine and simply clicking on the month, next to the 'new' icon, for the current issue.

In one way or another, all of the excellent programs of The Rotary Foundation contribute to world peace and understanding.

 

          One of the joys of Rotary is meeting people from other cultures - interacting, working with them - Rotarians, Students, Scholars and Peace Fellows.   We interact through the Rotary Foundation programs while volunteering, living and studying in a country other than our own.

All that time nurturing and encouraging peace by building better understanding through person-to-person contact and building friendship and fellowship through cross-cultural exchange.         

          Rotary arranges this purposely through Youth Exchanges, Ambassadorial Scholarships, Group Study Exchanges, Peace Fellowships, Humanitarian and Educational Grants.

          Purposely?

          Of course!  Can you think of a better way to advance international understanding, goodwill, and peace? 

          We are invited to visit with folks (often at their dinner table) and although we have different ethnicity, speak different languages, have different skin colors, our eyes shaped differently, different religious faiths....  We all do get along and work together and very well too.

          And when we interact and work with folks all around the world we discover that we all care about the same things.  We care about our families and want our children to be safe, to be healthy and educated....  and the things that we share, that we value, are more important than the things that are different.

          The joy of...  the power of... the magic of Rotary gives life to the motto that "Peace is Possible".

          Goodwill, greater understanding and peace have been the driving forces in Rotary for over 100 years.

Enjoy this January 2011, Our Foundation Magazine.

 

In Rotary, in Peace,
