Hello District 7070 Rotarians and the whole Rotary family:
When I joined Rotary back in 2006, I was surprised to find out that Rotary has a long history of promoting peace in the world. I always remember Past District Governor Brian Thompson explaining at one of our Whitby Sunrise Club meetings that Rotary served as a consultant to the US delegation at the United Nations (UN) Conference on International Organization, often referred to as the UN Charter Conference, in San Francisco in 1945. Today, Rotary proudly holds the highest consultative status offered to non-governmental organizations by the UN’s Economic and Social Council (UNESCO). .............
