Did you know? New names for some of the 6 Areas of Focus! Check it out.https://www.rotary.org/en/our-causes

The Rotary Foundation has changed the names of three areas of focus (marked with asterisks) to better reflect the types of projects that Rotary members carry out. The six areas of focus are:
§ Peacebuilding and conflict prevention*
§ Disease prevention and treatment
§ Water, sanitation, and hygiene*
§ Maternal and child health
§ Basic education and literacy
§ Community economic development*

Some of the areas of focus goals have also changed. You’ll find new activities related to the environment in the updated Areas of Focus Policy Statements. Have a look at:

Over the next few weeks we'll be posting a series on Rotary's six areas of focus. 

Rotary is dedicated to six areas of focus to build international relationships, improve lives, and create a better world to support our peace efforts and end polio forever. These areas are:
- Supporting education
- Fighting disease
- Saving mothers and children
- Providing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene
- Growing local economies
- Promoting peace

To achieve sustainable solutions, we partner with organizations, companies, and government agencies that offer the expertise, access, and scale that can propel Rotarian initiatives to long-term success. We pull together the right partners, the right people, and the right structure to leverage the power of local Rotarian efforts.

OK, Cornwall members, let’s get in on the Agape Centre One Bag Challenge. Have you done that yet? I'm on for next week. You’ll remember that for our charter night August 15, 2017 we collected food items from those who attended. Let’s celebrate that anniversary by doing it again.
