DG John Bob made his club visitation to Poultney Rotary on Monday, October 4.
He is a member of the Milford (NH) Rotary Club and became a member when his wife was club president. He join to aid in meeting a membership goal the club had set, but since then Rotary has meant much more to him on a personal level. The successful work of Rotary in District 7870 is based upon personal interactions and establishing friendships within your club and community (town, County, and District). Work on Global/District grants, Polio Plus, and interactions between Rotarians, Roteract, and Interact members is a success because of personal connections which take work and understanding of where each is coming from. 
NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER
As my dear friend District Governor Trainer PDG & past DRFC
Rick Manganello puts it, "if we catch Rotarians hearts’, their
pocketbooks will follow". You may have already heard this (more
than once), but it is true. Hopefully, the communications from the
District are making us all aware of the life-altering impact our local
and international Rotary projects have on humanity. The results
being achieved by our District 7870 are very encouraging, last year
(2020-2021) our District was one of the top four most improved
donors to the Rotary Annual Fund in our Rotary Zone 32. It
proves that District 7870 Rotarians are very generous. We hope to
also continue to educate everyone as to how many ways there are to
contribute to the Foundation and be recognized.

We neither believe in, nor pursue, individual Rotarians specifically asking one another to contribute to the Rotary Foundation, but we do believe in the positive work the Foundation funding makes possible and we hope to encourage others to support those good works. Please remember that our Rotary Foundation giving this year will help fund District designated funding in the Rotary Year of 2024 -2025 which will be David Saturley's year as our DG. Please consider joining me and Allise in participating through making a donation(s).
Please accept this as my personal thank you for what you have done and are doing to make my year as District Governor so rewarding.
