As many of you know, I am also our District Literacy Chairperson, and I want to invite you and/or a club representative to attend this year's District Literacy Conference on March 30 at DU (see attached flier for details; you can register on the district website). There are outstanding speakers who will expose you to different areas of literacy in very engaging 20-minute presentations. These speakers are likely to inspire your club to take a new direction in literacy and education, one of the 6 areas of focus in Rotary, or connect you with a great speaker for your future club meetings!  

 

We have planned for at least one representative from your club at this conference. The facilities we use are top-notch, and the food we serve is excellent. For those very far away or a small club, perhaps your Area can send one or two representatives. There will be time available to network with other clubs on your literacy projects as well.

 

Improved literacy and education changes lives in so many ways here and around the world!  Use this conference to discover new and interesting approaches to literacy to make this difference in the world.

 

Thanks, in advance, for your support of this District initiative.

 

Yours in Rotary, 

Karen Loeb

This Conference will be an exciting opportunity for Rotarians to learn about different approaches to improving literacy and how basic education changes lives, both in Colorado and around the world. You will also hear from outstanding educational organizations and educators in our community as well as what other clubs are doing so that new club partnerships can be forged.

 

 

 

All Rotarians in District 5450 interested in various NEW programs in literacy and basic education, both locally and around the world. Try to send at least one member from your club to learn about new directions in literacy.
