In a country at war, records are lost, destroyed. To advance in education, Harun needs to pay for official records.
David Wood, Harvard MBA, a man with deep roots in London, developed his winning formula by transforming a failing plastics company in the '60's. He has since reinvigorated other organizations. His message is particularly important at this point when we are watching major societal conflict erupting.
He says:
Please invite friends and family to hear David speak to us via Zoom at our regular lunch meeting on September 8.

Last year, Lorrie identified a school in East London that could use some help. Her first move was to recruit some helpers and spruce up the landscaping on the school property. 
President Bonnie Hudson and Sila Joshua sign an agreement to collect a pool of money from Club members and interested friends to support young people from South Sudan who are working on a college education. These young people will use their skills to help build South Sudan, the world's newest country. 
As well as a financial donation from our Club to the Toys for Tots project, Deb, Bonnie (wearing the Rotary Participation shades!) and Susan Cassan joined armed forces volunteers to fill Santa bags with new gifts for children ages 3 to 13.

Rotary Club of London East delivered over 800 Dictionaries to 3rd Graders in London and Area!!!!!
“The Dictionary Project” was started over eleven years ago in South Carolina when Mary French set out to give a dictionary to every third grader in every school in South Carolina, every year.
The dictionaries are handpicked to fit the needs of young students learning to read and write.
The dictionary has larger print and is small enough for growing hands and contains most words that third graders use.
The 3rd grade was targeted because this is the age when children are beginning to learn the importance of words; in their speech and in their writing.
Having a dictionary of their own gives them ‘word power’ to write essays in later years, to read a book and understand it, and to function in the business world when they grow up.
It will also be a help to teachers and in doing homework.
It is not a children’s book, but one they can keep and use all their lives, helping them to become knowledgeable adults.

Bike Project
London East Rotary - El Dorado Rotary Club Bogota
"Bike project set back"
What does this mean?
Delay means time for a grant, our fundraising committee will apply (all applications must be complete by February 2017.
Why is there a delay?
The Rotary Club in Bogota was working with a school "Sena" to set up a course to repair and distribute bikes.
The teachers were organizing to help supplement payment for the shipping container from Cartagena to Bogota.
We found out that the legal department is saying "they cannot do this".
The El Dorado Rotary Club will now fundraise and approach corporations to raise the $2500
Since we have more time, let's add more value to the project
1. Tool kits to repair a bicycle
2. Donation centre for tools
3. Elderly people not needing tools
4. Drive for more bicycles
5. Bicycle pumps
6. Bike helmets
7. Bicycle bells
8. Reflective tape
Let's continue to grow and organize this Bicycle Project.
