ROTARY SERVING HUMANITY

Rotary has been many things, to many people, in the last 111 years. Through Rotary, our members have found friends, community, and a sense of purpose; we’ve forged connections, advanced our careers, and had incredible experiences we couldn’t have had anywhere else. Every week, in more than 34,000 clubs around the world, Rotarians come together to talk, laugh, and share ideas. But above all, we come together for one, overriding goal: service.

Service to humanity has been the cornerstone of Rotary since its earliest days, and has been its main purpose ever since. I believe that there is no better path to meaningful service today than Rotary membership; and no organization better placed to make a real and positive difference in our world. No other organization so effectively brings together committed, capable professionals in a wide variety of fields, and enables them to achieve ambitious goals. Through Rotary, we have the capacity, the network, and the knowledge to change the world: the only limits are the ones we place on ourselves.

Today, our organization is at a critical point: a historic juncture that will determine, in so many ways, what comes next. Together, we have provided extraordinary service to our world; tomorrow, our world will depend on us to do even more. Now is the time to capitalize on our success: as we complete the eradication of polio, and catapult Rotary forward, with determination and enthusiasm, to be an even greater force for good in the world.

Of the many lessons polio eradication has taught us, one of the most important is also one of the simplest: that if we want to bring all of Rotary forward, we’ve all got to be moving in the same direction. Continuity of leadership, at the club, district, and RI level, is the only way we will flourish, and achieve our full potential. It is not enough simply to bring in new members and form new clubs: our goal is not more Rotarians, but more Rotarians who can achieve more good Rotary work, and will become the Rotary leaders of tomorrow.

Near the end of his life, reflecting on the path that brought him to Rotary, Paul Harris wrote: “Individual effort may be turned to individual needs, but combined effort should be dedicated to the service of mankind. The power of combined effort knows no limitation.” He could hardly have imagined then that one day, more than 1.2 million Rotarians would be combining their efforts, and, through our Rotary Foundation, their resources, to serve humanity together. And we can only imagine what great deeds Paul Harris would have expected of such a Rotary! It is our responsibility to achieve those deeds; as it is our privilege to carry forth the tradition of Rotary Serving Humanity.

Sincerely, John Germ President, Rotary International, 2016-17

PRESIDENTIAL THEME & CITATION

HOW TO QUALIFY

To qualify for the Presidential Citation, clubs must complete two mandatory activities and additional activities in several categories. Most activities will be verified automatically through RI’s data. But some will be verified only by the information you enter in Rotary Club Central.

To more accurately capture your club’s achievements, for the first time ever, clubs will have the entire Rotary year — from 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2017 — to achieve the Presidential Citation goals.

District governors will be able to track the progress of all of their clubs online, and I’m asking them to follow up with you regularly and support you in achieving these goals

DISTRICT CITATIONI will also offer a special citation to districts that:

Have at least 51 percent of clubs earn the Presidential Citation

Contribute at least 20 percent of their District Designated Fund to PolioPlus

Increase Annual Fund giving by 5 percent over last year’s total

Achieve a 3 percent increase in membership

Thank you in advance for your efforts this year to show Rotary Serving Humanity.

BackgroundRotary in Uganda has been involved in health and other social services since the first club, the Rotary of Kampala, was inau-gurated in 1957. One of the most successful of these programmes was the 3-H Mwa-namugimu Nutrition Services, which run from 1983 to 1990 and served an estimated population of over 2 million. It also had a component of nationwide community train-ing of trainers programme.

The word Mwanamugimu is a local word from a proverb “Mwanamugimu ava kungozi” which means that a healthy baby comes from a good foundation, this founda-tion being good nutrition. The concept was an innovation by a Professor Jelliffe who was the head of Paediatrics at the Faculty of Medicine at Makerere University and this led to the establishment of one of the world’s first pioneer nutrition rehabilita-tion centre at Mwanamugimu Nutrition Centre in Mulago Hospital in 1962 with the assistance of OXFAM and SCF (UK). The aim and spirit of the centre was to combine nutrition rehabilitation of the affected chil-dren with teaching and training of mothers how to prevent recurrence of malnutrition among the affected children and to prevent the development of malnutrition among the siblings. The emphasis was to promote pre-ventive and promotive nutrition as mothers participate in the treatment of their mal-nourished children away from busy paediat-ric wards. In this rehabilitation process, the teaching and practice were that diet rather than drugs were key in both treatment and future wellbeing of the children.

Admission

Children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) with medical complications or failed appetite test are admitted to P1 for inpatient care; some consideration can be made in special circumstances like; disability, social issues, or difficulties with access to care;

In addition, low weight babies (less than 2.5kg) that can’t be breast fed, or children less than 6 months with SAM,

In P1 the clients are fed on special thera-peutic formula milk (F75& F100) and all medical complications are managed. The clients spend about 1-7 days depending on their condition, the stage is also known as stabilization phase. When the patient improves there a gradually transitioned on a high nutritious fed (F100) and they cross over to P2

In P2, the client continues with the medication and RUTF a special solid food with the nutritive value is fed to child with

calculated portions to boost weigh gain.

In P3 children are introduced to family food that is carefully blended to optimize nutritional quality and quantity. There is also stimulation of the children in form of play sessions. In addition, are caretak-ers sensitized on good feeding practices to prevent relapse

Rotary named world’s outstanding foundation in 2016

and in 1988 became a leading partner in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. Since then, Rotary has contributed more than $1.6 billion and countless volunteer hours to protect more than two billion children in 122 countries from this paralysing disease. The Foundation’s advocacy efforts also have resulted in another $9 billion from world governments and foundations, increasing its impact. Today, polio is on the verge of be-coming only the second human disease ever to be eliminated after smallpox, with a 99.9 percent decrease in cases since the initiative began.

To mark the Foundation’s centennial year, Rotary members aim to raise $300 million by July 2017. “We are honoured to receive this recognition from the AFP, which give us even more reason to celebrate during our Foundation’s centennial year,” said Rotary Foundation Trustee Chair Kalyan Banerjee. “The continued strong support of Rotary members will help us keep our promise of a polio-free world for all children, and enable the Foundation to carry out its mission of ad-vancing world understanding, goodwill and peace. We look forward to another 100 years of Rotary members taking action to make communities better around the world.”

Rotary clubs have long embraced the call for peace at the grassroots level by addressing

the underlying causes of conflict and vio-lence, such as hunger, poverty, disease and illiteracy. In 2002, the Rotary Foundation took a direct approach by providing future leaders the tools to become catalysts for peace in their communities. Each year, up to 100 Rotary Peace Fellows are chosen to participate in a master’s degree or certificate program at one of Rotary’s Peace Centers in partnership with universities around the world. Today, more than 1,000 peace fellow alumni serve as leaders in national govern-ments, nongovernmental organizations, the military, law enforcement, and international institutions such as the United Nations and World Bank.

“While almost everyone is familiar with Ro-tary, not everyone may realize just how much an impact Rotary and the Rotary Foundation have had on countless people and commu-nities across the globe,” said AFP President and CEO Jason Lee. “On behalf of the en-tire charitable sector and people around the world, all of us at AFP are honored to be able to recognize The Rotary Foundation as our 2016 Outstanding Foundation.”

The Rotary Foundation will receive its award at AFP’s 2017 International Fundraising Conference in San Francisco, April 30 – May 2, 2017.

The Rotary Foundation’s assets have grown to approximately $1 billion, and more than $3 billion have been spent on various social and community welfare projects across the world.Nov 2016 - rotary.org
