Welcome to Meeting No. 206 of the Rotary eClub of Latitude 38 


This week's meeting material

Froggie's Chain Mail - Sep 2019

Does everyone receive a copy of the newsletter? In the latest edition our club gets a mention 

'Congratulations also to eClub of Latitude 38 on their very successful Embrace Aging Seminar conducted in Pakenham during September which I had the pleasure of attending. Cleverly coordinated, Latitude 38 engaged a number of partners to deliver this event using a blueprint that could easily be replicated by many clubs on many socially current subjects.' Well done!

Social Media Phishing

Being safe online is a topic that we have discussed before so I was interested to see this article from the Rotary Down Under Facebook page about the Rotaract Club of Canberra being targeted by a phishing scam. Read the story here

Polio in the Philippines

An article about a recent outbreak of polio in the Philippines. Read the full story from the WHO website here

Upcoming Project Trips

In November, Janet, Grant and myself will visit Cambodia for a rice drop and to visit Free To Shine and participate in their activity called 'A Mile in Serey’s Shoes '. All are welcome to join us and I will put some more info up in the coming weeks.

In January 2020 I will visit Vietnam to donate funds for SAPP ( Sponsoring Association for Poor Patients ) for the purchase of Vietnamese Health Insurance Cards. If you can make a donation it would be greatly appreciated and will allow me to purchase more cards to assist needy Vietnamese in Ben Tre province. Visit our projects page to see photos and information from my trip early this year.
