Diaper Drive!

Join us for the first two weeks in March for our Diaper Drive for the Life House. Last week we were just getting started with some lucky Rotarians and their "nuk nuks". Losers (or winners) of the diaper drive will be flaunting some special attire in a couple of weeks. Bring your diapers and help babies (and embarassing Rotarians!) win.

NEW Rotary Club to End Human Trafficking

Several midwestern Rotary Districts are coming together to charter a new cause-based Rotary club to fight human trafficking. We need 20 members to charter this club which will be an online eclub. Please spread the word to folks you know who might be interested in becoming Rotarians in an online club and who care about this cause. (Rotarians can only belong to one club at a time).

Contact Jennifer with any questions.

RYLA Sponsorship Opportunities

Rotary Leadership Institute

Engage and empower members . . .

Energize and strengthen your Rotary Club . . .

Provide Leadership Development for Members . . .

Learn about Rotary and have fun!

That is the Rotary Leadership Institute experience!

Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a facilitated program with active participation - not lecturing. Topics important to Rotary and Rotary Clubs such as Effective Service Projects, Membership Engagement, and understanding The Rotary Foundation are explored. You will discuss real challenges and exchange ideas.

Nominate members and they will naturally become more engaged because they will have a richer Rotary experience.

RLI is for everyone - Leadership is not a position, it is action.

March 28, 2020* - Omaha

Dundee Presbyterian Church - Omaha

$85 paid in advance

Suburban Rotary has a budget to send members to each class. If you are interested in attending, please contact Jennifer.

RLI is not a repeat of other training available through Rotary and is not position specific.

Monthly Lunch Sponsor

Thank you to Mark Taylor/Nebraska Realty for his sponsorship of speaker and student lunches for the month of March.

(Sponsors are needed for May and June. Please contact Jennifer if you'd like to be a sponsor.)
