Mahalo to our very own, Dr. Kandie George, for putting together a Club Team for the March for Babies! We had a great team of 10 with Club members and friends! It was a beautiful day yesterday morning with just a few rain sprinkles. Young men and women cheering us on along the walking path, loads of tents with health information and snacks, fun for the kids (they played Simon Says and it was great fun to watch), families, dogs . . . hundreds of folks turned out to support! I was blessed to walk with Dr. Kandie George, and in doing so, I was able to personally meet the family and friends who were being honored. Medicine has come such a long way - miracles are real!

YMCA of Honolulu NEEDS YOU! The help request is to refurbish residential facilities at the Atkinson Central facility. YMCA of Honolulu provides housing at low cost and low-barrier to those who are housing insecure, or in need of transitional housing - many are houseless-but-working folks. ATKINSON'S affordable housing fills a critical need for this population.
YOUR help will bring more residential units online so those on a daily waitlist can gain access to the services and get off the street!

Instead of meeting at the Outrigger, we go into the community to deepen relationships with our fellow Rotarians. It is a throwback to the founding days of Rotary when meeting locations would rotate each week among the offices of the members.
What is a Paul Harris HOST?
Hosts organize a location for a group of Rotarians to meet. This is a great opportunity to showcase your office, have an intimate group at your home, introduce people to a nonprofit you support, or get together at an interesting location like a museum or new business in the community. The sky is the limit on where to host!
Hosts can decide if they will provide food or if members will pay their own way. Sign up to host! Choose: day, time, location, and if you will provide meals, no meals, or ask for a small fee to cover meals.
When?
The week of May 21st is our upcoming Paul Harris week. Hosts can select any day and time that week.
You are invited to attend this special lunch meeting not only in fellowship but to support and congratulate the 'Olelo Peacemaker Video Winners! These young folks are our future! These exceptional youth put together and created their idea of how-to problem-solve a situation and create PEACE in our World.
What do YOU want to get out of your of your Rotary Membership? Are you a new member or someone interested in learning about opportunities to engage with Rotary? Please join us for a New Member Orientation 2.0 session via Zoom to ask all the questions you have about Rotary and learn more about our teams and service projects.
Wear your Rotary shirts, sunscreen, hats, and bring your water container to stay hydrated! Use the Volunteer SignUp pages. We can never have too many helping hands!
