District 5180 News
District Governor Karen Cendro's Welcome
Welcome to Rotary District 5180 where over 1600 Rotarians throughout the greater Sacramento region serve our communities both locally and around the world.
 
We are “People of Action” who see a need and act on it. We are friends who enjoy getting together to raise funds for our service projects and to celebrate our successes. 
 
Our primary focus during this Rotary year is on basic needs... food, water and shelter. And, our theme is “Serve It Up.” 
 
We work to ensure food security for families and the elderly in our communities. We provide clean water throughout the world. We work to shelter those in crisis in partnership with ShelterBox. 
 
We hope you will join us as we come together to serve our communities. 
 
In Rotary Service,
 
Karen Cendro
District Governor, District 5180
“Serve It Up”
 
 
 
Welcome to the 2022-2023 Rotary Year!
It's a new year, and with it - new leadership. But this year, we mark a major milestone in Rotary history with the first woman to serve as president of Rotary International. Check out this video as President Jennifer Jones, member of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, introduces us to the story behind this year's theme - Imagine Rotary.
 
Watch Jennifer's video here.

District Governor's Message: June

Welcome to June – the month where we focus on Rotary Fellowships! Pickleball, chess, railroads, bicycling, wine, beer, recreational vehicles - these are just a few of the many Fellowships available to Rotarians and their families to enjoy.
 
Rotary Fellowships are international groups that share a common passion. Being part of a fellowship is a fun way to make friends around the world, explore a hobby or profession, and enhance your Rotary experience.
 

Rotary Fellowships help expand skills, foster vocational development and enhance the Rotary experience by exploring interests while developing connections around the world.

District Governor's Message: May

Welcome to May – and our opportunity to turn our focus to Youth Services! Having visited every club in our district, I got to see and hear about all that our clubs did this term that served young people. What a wonderful variety of events, projects and service activities! 
 
Rotary believes in developing the next generation of leaders. 

Our programs help younger leaders build leadership skills, expand education and learn the value of service.

In addition to Rotary’s youth programs – RYE (Rotary Youth Exchange), Interact, Rotaract, the annual speech contest and RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awakening) camps – our clubs have developed their own programs to meet the needs of young people in their areas.

District Governor's Message: April

Welcome to April – Rotary’s Maternal and Child Health Month! An estimated 5.9 million children under the age of five die each year because of malnutrition, inadequate health care and poor sanitation. And all of these causes are preventable!
 
Rotary makes high-quality health care available to vulnerable mothers and children so they can live longer and grow stronger.
 
(This is me at a recent InnerWheel Spring High Tea, with Linda Daniels, InnerWheel USA president, and Rosemary Lamb, InnerWheel D519 Chair.)
