Leadership - a Rotary Value
 
 
The definition of leadership is to influence, inspire and help others become their best selves, building their skills, and achieving goals along the way.  You don't have to be a CEO, manager or even a team lead to be a leader. Leadership is a set of skills – and a certain psychology – that anyone can master.

District Governor's Message: November 2022
We have much to be Thankful for During Rotary Foundation Month!
 
 
I am incredibly thankful for our District 5180 family of Rotary. During the month of November, Rotary Foundation Month, I am reminded of how generous our members are.  We donated close to $300,000 to the Rotary International Foundation Annual Fund in the 21/22 Rotary year and have given over $100,000 in just the first four months of this year.  That puts us at a pace to equal last year’s donations

District Governor's Message: October 2022
 
 
I love October.  It’s harvest time which can only mean one thing…. I’m in the kitchen baking and cooking! Bring on the smell of bread in the oven and that special pork and apple dinner that brings rolling eyes in my house.  “Here she goes again. We know it’s October based on what Mom is cooking”. 
 
Thank you to all our generous donors from Rotary Clubs and other organizations for helping those in need during the Mosquito fire and its aftermath.  Together, we fed evacuees and provided the funds, via the Salvation Army, for gift cards needed to replenish essentials.  Shout outs go out to the Rotary Clubs of South Placer, Granite Bay, El Dorado Hills and Folsom for providing lunches, dinners, tents, mattresses and so much more at the evacuation sites.
