Preparing for #Rotary26 in Taipei has involved many things. Speech writing, meeting planning, and... trying bubble tea for the very first time 🧋Thankfully, I had some guidance!

I'm looking forward to discovering new projects, hearing inspiring stories, and connecting with Rotary members from around the world.

📚 Books, breakfast & summer reading!

Last month, Berkeley Rotary volunteers supported Berkeley’s No More Summer Slide program, helping students choose free books to take home.

[Steven Lauwerier @UNICEFPolioDir]

@Rotary stalwart Judith Diment reflects on how, in a time of deep divides, the #EndPolio effort is a true “Lichtblick,” showing what humanity can achieve when governments, civil society, health workers & communities unite behind a common cause.

Every item we throw away ends up somewhere. In Ghana, communities are living with the hidden cost of fast fashion and e-waste, but they’re also leading the fight for change.

Nigeria integrated health services at scale. Combining polio vaccination with measles, rubella and essential health services helped them reach every child. The effort reshaped how the country runs campaigns at national scale. #EndPolio

[Rotary International @Rotary]

In 1949, a group of Rotarians in Custer, South Dakota, formed a human chain up the side of Thunderhead Mountain, passing 29 tons of lumber hand to hand to help build a staircase for a dream that was just beginning — the Crazy Horse Memorial.

What started as a simple act of service became a partnership spanning generations. More than 70 years later, the club continues to support the memorial’s mission of honoring Native American culture, expanding educational opportunities, and bringing people together through understanding and community.

It’s a story of vision, perseverance, and what can happen when people come together to build something bigger than themselves.

What makes a good life? 🤔

After nearly 90 years of research, scientists behind the Harvard Study of Adult Development say the answer isn’t wealth or status. It’s relationships 😌💛

The effort to #EndPolio takes determination and commitment. In a changing world, the discussion at #WHA79 was a powerful reminder that polio eradication remains one of the most unifying public health endeavors.

At an airport lounge, a stranger noticed an @EndPolioNow sticker on Habiba Bennani's laptop. This sparked a conversation she would never forget.

The stranger shared the story of his father, who survived polio as a child and lived the rest of his life with its lasting effects. This chance encounter turned the mission of polio eradication into something deeply personal for Habiba, and reminds us that behind every statistic is a real human story.

⚓ Throwback to a wonderful outing aboard the USS Potomac, FDR’s yacht, near the Oakland Ferry Terminal.

Berkeley Rotarians and guests enjoyed a docent-led tour arranged by the BRC Social Committee—informative, fun, and followed by lunch at Jack London Square.
