Every day I see Rotarians taking ACTION to make a difference in our community and our world. I see Mack Patel constantly stopping to help strangers as well as friends. I see Mike Trewitt traveling our District to encourage us to stay the course by committing to Polio Plus. Chuck Musgrave, Alfonso Nieves, Angela Rickman, Tom Fisher, Elizabeth Casey, Keith Oehlert, Sally Newey, Roy Woods,…where do I stop?
People of action constantly making a difference.
I want to recognize one person in particular in this article; Jere Jones, a member of the Oklahoma City’s NW Rotary Club and the owner of Sani-Sheen Carpet Cleaning. Jere put his business on hold to put on a cute, but stifling, bear suit and wave people into the Oklahoma Blood Institute RV at Sooner State Bank on North May Ave. It was HOT folks.
The NW Rotary Club initiated the District Wide Blood Drive in conjunction with Rotary International’s designation of July as Blood Drive month. READ MORE

Rotary International President Stephanie Urchick announced that the 2024-25 presidential theme is "The Magic of Rotary" and called on members to recognize and amplify the organization’s power to save lives . "We are not going to end polio or bring peace to the world by waving a wand. It's up to you. You create the magic with every project completed, every dollar donated, and every new member."
