I had the wonderful opportunity to attend one of Rotary's six “International Peace Conferences” in Chicago last June. D6270 was well represented with fifteen of us in attendance. We enjoyed the privilege of hearing many phenomenal speakers and participating in thought provoking breakout sessions and panel discussions.
One of those speakers, Xavier Ramey really stood out and I had the pleasure of hearing him speak again at the RI convention in Toronto. Good news, the Ozaukee County Branch of the NAACP has arranged to have Xavier Ramey as their guest speaker at their “Freedom Fund Fundraiser Event” on Saturday 17 November at the River Club in Mequon. The theme for this year’s event is “The Road to Peace is Justice”.
Promoting peace and understanding is one of Rotary’s six areas of focus. Please consider joining us to enjoy dinner and hear fellow Rotarian Xavier inspire us to action. Tickets, sponsorship opportunities and his RI Convention speech are available on this Eventbrite Link. Our emcee that evening will be D6270 AG Rayna Andrews, who is also a public health ambassador, author and activist with her core work in food security.
I know that you’ll love this event. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Best Regards,
