Ready - Set - Go!
After more than 25 years of sailing experiences I will cross my first ocean this way.
Every day on the water is another day full of experiences and learnings. Sailing is fun, thrilling, and at the same time relaxing. It asks all sorts of capabilities: thinking outside of the box, being observant as well as ingenious, all while basing yourself on fundamentals and humility towards nature's forces.

Therefore, I use my race preparation once more to raise awareness and funds for the basic education and literacy programs of the Rotary Foundation.
As I am only doing Leg 1, I will “unplug” during the race, but keep you updated here before and after my Atlantic Crossing.

For donations in currencies other than USD, CAD or AUD - message me.

Training of Teachers and parents on Skills of Identifying and helping Children with learning disabilities in Schools in Simenya Sub-Location in Kenya
BACKGROUND INFORMATION

       In Kenyan Schools, the ministry of education has an  All-Inclusive Class Room System of learning. The children  with learning disabilities find it extremely difficult to fit and thrive in this kind of environment because both their parents and teachers lack the skills to identify/recognize the learning disabilities in order to advocate  for and promote their safe inclusion. These children are labeled and mocked as stupid by their parents, teachers and peers. They  struggle with stigma, discrimination/social isolation, verbal, emotional and physical abuse. Because of this, most of these children end up dropping out of school at early stages of their education. Without basic education, these children grow into illiterate and poor members of the society who are predisposed to social injustices of all kinds.
February 23, 2020 marks the founding of a bold new provisional Rotary Club that is for people with a passion for International Service and Friendship.  
Come be a part of this new innovative Club and make a difference in the world.
 
Congratulations and Welcome!!

Our members are learning from a pro.  Fellow global passport member James is a master gardener. 
This was re-landscaping project at the Octagon House.   This building houses the offices of the 4 County Community Foundation in Almont,  Michigan. The project was completed in partnership with The Youth Advisor Committee (YAC).
On International 'Women in Engineering Day', we celebrate our member Caroline Kannwischer as she demonstrates that female engineers are faceted and actually often volunteer not just for industry initiatives but also for the greater good...

Members of the provisional club of Global Passport are People of Action!!

One member launched a Facebook page called Seniors needing Necessities during Coronavirus, which now has more than 100 volunteers from across Windsor-Essex Ontario, Canada who volunteer their time to shop for and donate supplies to the elderly.

 
They’re in bloom!!! We are excited to share pictures of the tulip garden that was planted by our member Pam Harrison and Rotary friends in Amherst, Nova Scotia. Our club members are continuing Pam’s passion to END POLIO NOW by participating in the 2021 tulip sale (Ontario) and completing our ‘Walk Around the World’.

Affectionately know as the Lynne/Christopher Tree Project
To celebrate Earth Day and Rotary’s new Environmental Area of Focus, fellow Rotarian Lynne Ternosky, a member of 6330 Passport ( our sponsor club) asked if we might accept the challenge of planting a few trees. We reached out to our members with the challenge. Before you know it, a few more funds were added and our International Service Chair Christopher organized the planting of 400 trees in and around a school in Kenya
Meet Juan Uribe. He lives with 59 other boys under the age of 18 at Casa de Proteccion al Menor Senderos (House of Protection of Children) orphanage in Zaragoza, Colombia.
