MEMBERSHIP MOMENT: "I am a Rotarian because a dear old primary school headmaster sought me out as a young country newspaper editor and invited me to join the Rotary Club of Parkes, NSW, Australia, many years ago. I have remained a Rotarian for 35 years because it did not take me long to realize that this unique vocationally based service organization provided the opportunity for ONE person to be part of an amazing humanitarian army doing special things in our world. We heal the sick, care for the poor, provide basic literacy and numeracy skills, provide food and fresh water for the hungry, and - in recent times - provide educational resources for a new breed of ʻpeace fightersʼ playing a major role in conflict resolution around our world. I have great pride in Rotaryʼs ongoing mentoring of young people and dedication to lifting ethics in business, and I draw daily inspiration from the knowledge that Rotary International impacts 33,000 communities throughout our world EVERY DAY!"
PDG Bob Aitken
