A Message from the Presidents Rotary is a worldwide network of inspired individuals who translate their passions into relevant social causes to change lives in communities. Our club acts locally and globally, providing service above self. Our projects focus on building literacy skills and educational capacity.

Thank you for your continued support of the good work that our club and Rotary does. Please come join us and be rewarded with camaraderie and the knowledge that your time and effort has positive community impact.

Holger Heitland President Rotary Club of Duncan Daybreak Dear Friend of Rotary The Rotary Club of Duncan, along with 145 clubs – with 6000 members – across BC is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the first club, in Vancouver.

The Duncan club was founded only 17 years later. Our club, with about 65 members, has been actively participating in community, youth and international projects for 83 years. Rotary in BC has a proud legacy. Rotary is active in one of the world’s largest youth exchange programs; along with thousands of clubs world-wide, we send local teenagers from the Cowichan Valley on both long-term (1 year) and short-term (1 month summer) exchanges; most of them find this a life-changing experience. Our members are proud of the legacy of Rotary International, an impressive force for good in the world. Along with other charities, notably the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, we have made real progress in ridding the world of

Gordon Butt President Rotary Club Duncan

the scourge of polio. The Rotary Club of Duncan consists of enthusiastic members from all walks of life in the Valley. We are always looking for new members with a desire to give back to the community and participate in meaningful projects. Visit our website or our page on Facebook.

One of the unique experiences as President of an organization such as Rotary is that you are constantly amazed at the impact Rotary and Rotarians have in the local and global community. When I look at the trails, parks and community projects our own club has been involved in I wonder where our members have found the time to achieve so much. When you expand that view to the many International projects such as schools, water, sanitation and educational projects you can stand amazed. Now translate that to 100 years and I am proud to be part of an organization that has had continued positive impact across the world.

Thank you Rotary for alowing us to make a difference.

Celebrating 100 Years in BC

www.rotary.org

Congratulations Rotary!

The celebration of the centenary of Rotary BC is the perfect time to reflect on the club’s activities in our area. Cowichan would be a very different place without the historic and ongoing contributions of the Rotary Club. Rotary provided seminal support for the 25-acre Rotary Park, the Coronary Care Unit of the Cowichan District Hospital, the Chesterfield Sports Field and the Island Savings Centre. These facilities alone have contributed to the health, happiness and well-being of tens of thousands of children and families. Along with major projects, the Rotary encourages applications for a range of community undertakings of all themes, sizes and ideas. In fact, they

like projects that require sweat equity from their members.

This is an organization whose members are committed, engaged and very hands-on. Yet still they do more — fundraising proceeds go all around the world to build and upgrade schools, deliver wheel chairs, immunize children, and more. Rotary never strays from their motto“Service Above Self” The Chamber is proud to share members with Rotary, and to live in a community where Rotary benefits our citizens, and provides us with so many opportunities to give back.

Congratulations on a century of giving and all the best for 100 more good years.

George R. Gates President, Duncan Cowichan Chamber

Rotary helped build this!

Thank you for many moving experiences and for 100 years of dedicated community service.

Together we can rid the world of polio Polio. A disease that is only a plane ride away from Canada.

It’s a disease that most of us note only once in our lives: at the time of a simple inoculation that few will even remember. And yet, when the first polio vaccine was introduced 57 years ago, it came at a time of fear and even panic.

Early last year, the World Health Assembly said polio eradication was a “programmatic emergency for global public health.” It takes 60 cents to save a child’s life by administering a polio vaccination.

Polio, short for poliomyelitis, is an infection that can affect nerve cells in the spinal cord. It can strike at any age, but mainly affects children under five years of age. Discovered by Jonas Salk, the vaccine staunched the march of a disease that was as terrifying as it was deadly.

Those it did not kill were left paralyzed.

For more information on Rotary’s fight against Polio, visit www.endpolionow.org.

Fear of the disease was enough to keep playgrounds empty in the mid 1950s and children inside. Salk’s discovery of the vaccine launched one of the most aggressive immunization campaigns the world has ever seen.

Today, most of the world is polio free with India earning the designation in 2012. In only three countries does the disease remain endemic: Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

For Cowichan Rotarians, a world without polio is ‘this close’ as the PolioPlus campaign states.

Rotary has been involved in the fight to eradicate polio since 1985.

Despite the success, much work needs to be done. The focus is not only on the three countries where polio remains, but also on ensuring it doesn’t reappear in other countries.

“If we all have the fortitude to see this effort through to the end, then we will eradicate polio” Bill Gates.

ROTARY is PolioPlus, Rotary’s commitment to national and international health organizations to work toward the goal of polio eradication. More than one billion children in developing nations have been immunized against polio through PolioPlus grants.

There are several allies in the fight. Along with Rotary International, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation together with United Nations have vowed to see polio’s complete eradication.

The fight is not cheap. Already Rotary has contributed more than $1.2 billion to wipe out the disease. But that has still left a funding gap that Rotarians fear could derail 25 years of effort.

THE FOUR-WAY TEST Right from the start, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world’s most widely-printed statements of business ethics is The Four- Way Test.

Created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor and adopted by Rotary 11 years later, The Four-Way Test asks: “Of the things we think, say or do:
