Rotary Stories
The ongoing crisis in Gaza has led to a reduced level of routine immunization in the region. The crisis also poses a significant challenge to fully implementing disease surveillance and vaccination campaigns. It is estimated that 650,000 children need to be vaccinated. The World Health Organization (WHO) considers there to be a high risk for the spread of this polio strain within Gaza and internationally, particularly given the current situation's impact on public health services. Rotary will continue to work with its partners in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative and other agencies as vaccination efforts unfold. Read More 
Lack of hygiene is perhaps the most serious issue facing rural villagers in Laos, from lack of education and access to clean water. Contaminated water throughout rural areas is the common cause of diarrhea plus short term and long-term sickness along with other crippling diseases which demand a major portion of villagers' meagre average income of $2,150 per year to be spent on healthcare.
 
Adopt A Village in Laos (AAVIL) is a Not-For-Profit Canadian Registered Organization, incorporated in 2010. Its primary purpose is to raise financial support for clean water and education. Water projects bring permanent water into villages, hygiene training with water filter distribution and hygienic toilets. Education includes the construction of schools/classrooms where none exist or where current schools are simply not adequate for learning plus sponsorship of poor children who would not be able to go to school without help.
David Harris, along with his sons Joseph and John, broke land on Crescent Island in the late 1800s. More than a century later, four local farm families have come together to form Barnside Brewing Co., on 60th Avenue in Ladner, a "farm-based" brewery, producing unfiltered craft beer using local farm-grown ingredients. Rotary Club of Ladner members toured the Barnside brewery on September 3rd. Rotary members will be managing the vehicle parking at the Barnside Harvest Festival, September 13 to 15, 2024 at Paterson Park in Ladner
 
 
For some health problems, a phone call or video call with a doctor or nurse can save you time and money. This is called virtual care, telemedicine or telehealth. Many hospitals and clinics offer virtual care as another way for you to see a doctor. Using a computer, phone, or other device doctor or nurse can ask you questions. They may even be able to check your blood pressure, pulse, and other body functions through special tools connected to your computer. You might also get a virtual physical examination, if you have the right connection.
The international Rotary Citation is the most significant award a Rotary club can achieve in recognition of its year of achievement for demonstrating a commitment to achieve its goals, in serving needs of its community and our world.

Since 1970 almost three billion birds have gone from North America alone. More and more species of birds are at risk of extinction. The number of bird species listed as Critically Endangered has reached an all-time high with 1 in 8 species threatened with extinction.
 
With a focus on birds, Vancouver Avian Research Centre aims to nurture nature’s recovery through scientific data, action-driven education and conservation tools to encourage change in individuals, educational institutions and policymakers. Founder of the Centre Carol Matthews looks forward to an enduring and thriving future for birds through action taken by individuals to protect the natural world in the places where they live, work and study.
