RI Council on Resolutions Submission Deadline June 30, 2024
Council on Resolutions
 
Rotary International’s Council on Resolutions meets each year to vote on proposed resolutions submitted by clubs, districts, the RI Board, and the general council or conference of RIBI and any urgent enactments proposed by the RI Board. Adopted resolutions are then considered by the RI Board or the TRF Trustees. Each district’s Council representative participates in the Council on Resolutions, and every club and district may propose resolutions. If your club or district is considering proposing a resolution for the Council on Resolutions, please click on this link to download the guidelines.
 
Proposed resolutions from clubs and districts for the Council on Resolutions must be received by Rotary International on or before 30 June prior to the Council on Resolutions, including the governor’s confirmation of endorsement. There are no exceptions to the deadline.
Calling all Presidents-Elect 2024-25
Identifying potential club leaders and re-energizing long-time members are important aspects of a club President’s responsibilities. Many incoming 2024-2025 club Presidents are now setting their budgets for the coming year. Please consider a budget line item of $80-$100 to either partially or wholly subsidize at least one of your club leader’s participation at Rotary Leadership Institute, April 26, 2025, location to be determined, but within District 7930 commute.

A highly interactive and informative one-day session on the organization, goals, and possibilities of Rotary, it is led by experienced faculty, and it is not necessary for participants to be currently serving club officers.
 
More info on curriculum? Go to www.rlinea.org or email Linda Doliber, District 7930 Site Chair. “The Magic of Rotary” will happen at the club level guided by strong leaders! Invest in yours!

 
Rockport Rotary Builds Classroom in Uganda
This past year, the Rockport Rotary Club built a classroom for Ugandan children with the support of a district grant. This comes as a result of the club's strong partnership with an organization called Village2Village Project, which focuses on serving vulnerable children in an impoverished area in rural northeastern Uganda, East Africa. The mission of Village2Village Project is to provide comprehensive, empowering, respectful, and compassionate care for vulnerable children and their families, one life at a time. The project provides basic needs support and education to over 225 children, most of whom have lost one more parent due to HIV/AIDs or violence.

Danvers Rotary Supports Food Pantry
Danvers Rotary Club purchased a new double door commercial freezer for the Danvers Food Pantry. The $6,800 donation provides additional freezer storage for food donations which arrive weekly from various sources including the Greater Boston Food Bank and Stop & Shop. The Danvers Food Pantry serves on average 240 families each month with 344 families actively receiving services this year. By year end a 25% increase is anticipated over last year. Through May 2024 the Pantry distributed 72,000 pounds of food.

Recently a group of Danvers Rotarians visited the Food Pantry to thank the volunteers and view the new freezer. The Danvers Food Pantry was started 30 years ago and is staffed by over 30 volunteers who coordinate collection and distribution of Pantry supplies to serve needy Danvers residents.
