RI PRESIDENT

."You create the magic with every project completed, every dollar donated,
and every new member inducted.
The Magic of Rotary can encourage whatever drives your local clubs. You can “grow The
Magic of Rotary,” if you’re adding new members to our family. You can “unlock The
Magic of Rotary” if you’re unlocking the power of women and girls. You can “advance
The Magic of Rotary” if you’re fundraising to help change the world.
And when our year as Rotary president and district governors has come to an end,
it’s up to us to make sure there’s a whole line of people behind us, ready to keep the
magic going.
I love my Rotary family, and I can feel that love in this room. That’s why I know you are
capable of making every club in your district simply irresistible.
This International Assembly won’t last forever. Make the most of even the smallest
moments. The briefest connection could result in a lifelong friendship. The simplest
lesson could change your entire Rotary career.

Don’t let these opportunities pass you by.
And when we return home, let’s change the world by embracing The Magic of Rotary!"
