"MY FAVOURITE MOMENT"

A favourite Rotary Moment from Steve Rutledge, Rotary Club of Whitby-Sunrise.

 

 

ROTARIAN SINCE: 2010

A FAVOURITE ROTARY MOMENT: This is really about adding each year to the most fulfilling moment as a Rotarian. As I finish out my 10th year as an active member, there are so many memories and moments to choose from....more than most will experience in a lifetime. This moment is all about the kids.

PERSONAL OUTCOME: I never dreamed that we could make this much of a positive difference in the growth and health of children on the other side of the world until I met my first Rotarian. Throughout the many friendships and mentors in Rotary, I realized a humanitarian dream was really possible and in fact inevitable for me. To see an innocent child smile and enjoy life as it is served to them, despite the hardships of everyday living, fills my heart with absolute joy. What is extra special, happens at the end of a big project, whether it be the completion of a school and seeing the kids carry their new desks up from the river, or permanent water supply, when our team arrives to officially hand over the project to the village. With students, teachers and villagers, dressed in their school or traditional uniform, lined up on both sides of the pathway offering flowers and other cultural symbols to us with a genuine look of gratitude for what they have received, is too emotional to express in words. Thank you Rotary for what you have achieved and allowed us to experience throughout the world. I suppose the highlight was a write-up and student pictures in The Rotarian magazine.
