May is Youth Service Month
This month is especially close to my heart. Youth Service Month is all about empowering young people, supporting their growth, and giving them opportunities to lead, learn, and shine. From Interact… to Rotaract… to RYLS… to scholarships… to mentorship…We are shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
So here’s my question for YOU:

Send me your events, your stories, your photos… let’s celebrate it ALL and share it across the District!
