Message from Our RI President
Be The Inspiration

Our new RI President, Barry Rassin, is from our Rotary Zone 34. I wanted to share his message with each of you.

This year, I ask each of you not only to seek that inspiration within yourselves, but to be the Inspiration for others. Work to build clubs and districts with Rotarians who find meaning in their service, who know they are having an impact, and who are inspired to do even more. Lead with passion, lead by example—and lead Rotary to a future even stronger than its present.

You and I, and every district governor, club president, and Rotary officer around the world, have been chosen this Rotary year. We’ve been chosen by our fellow Rotarians, who believed that we were the best people to do the work that now lies before us. In the twelve months ahead, I intend to work as hard as I can, as well as I can, and I know that you will do the same. We are all in this together—and together, we will Be the Inspiration.

Yours in Rotary,

Barry Rassin

Rotary International President, 2018-19
