Message from the Chairman of TRF
Raising awareness of The Rotary Foundation
Awareness is an important part of The Rotary Foundation’s work. It is important that members are aware of The Rotary Foundation Goals 2010-11: polio eradication; the Future Vision Plan; Every Rotarian, Every Year; and the Permanent Fund.
We must also be aware of the Rotary Centers Major Gifts Initiative in support of our Rotary Centers for International Studies in peace and conflict resolution and our USD 200 Million Challenge.
It is important to know that we are 1.2 million Rotarians in approximately 200 countries or geographical regions. Also that we are divided in geographical zones, each of which has one or more regional Rotary Foundation coordinators, assistant regional Rotary Foundation coordinators, and Rotary Foundation alumni coordinators. Furthermore, that The Rotary Foundation finances are totally separate from those of Rotary International and that The Rotary Foundation has its own board of 15 Trustees, headed by a trustee chair. And there are seven regional offices in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, India, Japan, Korea, and Switzerland. Together with the headquarters in the United States, they are available to serve not only Rotary International but also The Rotary Foundation.
Another part of The Rotary Foundation awareness is the sharing of information outside our organization. We are a group of leaders with a superb network. It is time for us to let the world know about all good things that we have accomplished over so many years. Rotarians have the opportunity to create – and must create – awareness regarding world problems and how they can be solved by Building Communities – Bridging Continents through Service Above Self.

Rotary News and Information
Last March, photographer Allison Kwesell visited Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh, one of two states in India where the poliovirus maintains its grip. (The other is Bihar.) She documented a weeklong national immunization campaign during which 13.7 million children under the age of five received drops of the polio vaccine.
Many of those children won’t be safe from the disease, however, until they receive several vaccinations. Poor sanitation – which exposes children to polio in the first place – leads to diarrhea, which makes it hard for young bodies to hang on to the vaccine long enough to build immunity.
Going door to door is a time-tested method of carrying out immunization campaigns, but Uttar Pradesh is home to many migrant workers and members of nomadic tribes, who may have more than one place of residence – or none at all. Among them is eight-year-old Nikin Kumar (previous pages), who contributes to his family’s income by moving 1,000 bricks a day, eight months a year, at a brickworks in Moradabad. His family lives in a cramped settlement of one-room shelters, built of bricks the workers make by hand, but from June to September – the monsoon season – they return to their own village. During each National Immunization Day (NID), polio workers blanket the state, searching for every family – whether they are at home, on the road, or living in temporary quarters.
Kwesell has worked as a photojournalist in China, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam. She met Jim Roxlo, of the Rotary Club of North River (Chattanooga), Tennessee, USA, when she volunteered with the Children’s Nutrition Program of Haiti. Her trip to India was organized by Roxlo’s club and the office of the India PolioPlus Committee.
R.I. President’s Message
Rotary DNA!
This Rotary year features a culture of innovation in which we are looking at all aspects of our policies, practices, and procedures to see if they can be modernized and improved. Not surprisingly for an old and large organization like ours, we are identifying many areas that could, and should, be brought up to date.
But at the same time, I fully recognize that some things are so significant in Rotary’s success that they are sacrosanct. They are referred to in the RI Strategic Plan as our core values, but I prefer to call them our DNA. They are the characteristics that distinguish Rotary from all other organizations. They are the essence of who Rotarians are and what Rotarians have in common around the world.
The five core values named in the RI Strategic Plan are fellowship, service, integrity, diversity, and leadership. Young people prefer the word networking to our traditional word of fellowship, but to me they are equivalent. Both words lead to lasting friendships in our clubs, which keep us together between projects and which make Rotary membership truly priceless. Friendship is clearly the most essential element of Rotary’s DNA!
Rotarians should not worry that the current emphasis on modernization will damage our core values. That would be alien to Cowboy Logic, which includes the admonitions “Remember that some things are not for sale” and “Know where to draw the line.” I want to assure Rotarians that we will not alter the values and attitudes that have made Rotary a premier organization – one that is now on the world stage through PolioPlus!
We have so much to be proud of as Rotarians. This is our finest hour, and our best days are still ahead as we help our clubs to be Bigger, Better, and Bolder. Along with our five core values, persistent progress is another prestigious part of Rotary’s DNA!

The President's Message for the Month of August 2010
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE FOR MADALING ARAW BULLETIN
AUGUST 2010
GREETINGS FELLOW ROTARIANS & MEMBERS OF THE INNER WHEEL CLUB
Our first month July was truly a remarkable salvo in our 2010-2011 rotary year of service in view of the numerous events and activities that occurred within the first 30 days.
Our very own induction of our new officers on July 6, in MB Grand Pavilion graced by our newly elected Provincial Governor Willie Alvarado and our DG Melvin Tiongson was a very memorable and successful exercise.
The joint oath taking of the new presidents and officers of the Rotary Community Corp. of Sta. Cruz, Sta. Cruz Village and Guyong on July 10 exhibited the agility and active participation of our partners in service.
The various induction attended by yours truly and our officers and members such as RC Malolos Central, RC Malolos Hiyas, RC Bulacan, RC Mutya ng Sta. Maria and the District Turn-over in Bayombong, Nueva Viscaya on July 3 served as added inspiration to the new officers of our club.
July also ushered in the new innovation in our club program to further improve camaraderie and involvement of our members such as EARLY BIRD RECOGNITION, THE 100% ATTENDANCE and FUN NITES that add enjoyment to the members. And the emergence of the new heartthrobs “Cuatro Cantos of RC Sta. Maria” composed of Sec. Lito, Dir. August, PP Danny and Rtn. Albert.
On the other hand, the month of August also promises a very busy and to be another notable month in 2010-2011, in view of the Governor’s Visit on August 17, the organizing and preparation of our Bowling Team for September 04 District Tournament Opening, the presentation of the first Club Service Project – LATRINE for 40 INDIGENT FAMILIES, the presentation of the new project to further improve and maintain the club attendance.
Again, we shall make these possible through the USUAL SUPPORT, UNITY AND COMMITMENT of the members.
Together we shall make a difference. MABUHAY TAYONG LAHAT!!!

History of Rotary International
The world's first service club, the Rotary Club of Chicago, was formed on 23 February 1905 by Paul P. Harris, an attorney who wished to capture in a professional club the same friendly spirit he had felt in the small towns of his youth. The Rotary name derived from the early practice of rotating meetings among members' offices.
Rotary's popularity spread, and within a decade, clubs were chartered from San Francisco to New York to Winnipeg, Canada. By 1921, Rotary clubs had been formed on six continents. The organization adopted the Rotary International name a year later.
As Rotary grew, its mission expanded beyond serving club members’ professional and social interests. Rotarians began pooling their resources and contributing their talents to help serve communities in need. The organization's dedication to this ideal is best expressed in its motto: Service Above Self.
By 1925, Rotary had grown to 200 clubs with more than 20,000 members. The organization's distinguished reputation attracted presidents, prime ministers, and a host of other luminaries to its ranks — among them author Thomas Mann, diplomat Carlos P. Romulo, humanitarian Albert Schweitzer, and composer Jean Sibelius.
The Four-Way Test
In 1932, Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor created The Four-Way Test, a code of ethics adopted by Rotary 11 years later. The test, which has been translated into more than 100 languages, asks the following questions:
Of the things we think, say or do
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
Rotary and World War II
During World War II, many clubs were forced to disband, while others stepped up their service efforts to provide emergency relief to victims of the war. In 1942, looking ahead to the postwar era, Rotarians called for a conference to promote international educational and cultural exchanges. This event inspired the founding of UNESCO.
In 1945, 49 Rotary club members served in 29 delegations to the UN Charter Conference. Rotary still actively participates in UN conferences by sending observers to major meetings and covering the United Nations in its publications.
"Few there are who do not recognize the good work which is done by Rotary clubs throughout the free world," former Prime Minister Winston Churchill of Great Britain once declared.
Dawn of a new century
As it approached the 21st century, Rotary worked to meet society’s changing needs, expanding its service efforts to address such pressing issues as environmental degradation, illiteracy, world hunger, and children at risk.
In 1989, the organization voted to admit women into clubs worldwide and now claims more than 145,000 female members in its ranks.
After the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Rotary clubs were formed or re-established throughout Central and Eastern Europe. The first Russian Rotary club was chartered in 1990, and the organization underwent a growth spurt for the next several years.
More than a century after Paul Harris and his colleagues chartered the club that eventually led to Rotary International, Rotarians continue to take pride in their history. In honor of that first club, Rotarians have preserved its original meeting place, Room 711 in Chicago’s Unity Building, by re-creating the office as it existed in 1905. For several years, the Paul Harris 711 Club maintained the room as a shrine for visiting Rotarians. In 1989, when the building was scheduled to be demolished, the club carefully dismantled the office and salvaged the interior, including doors and radiators. In 1993, the RI Board of Directors set aside a permanent home for the restored Room 711 on the 16th floor of RI World Headquarters in nearby Evanston.
Today, 1.2 million Rotarians belong to over 32,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas.
