​ROTARY DISTRICT 7870 
 John Siemienowicz-
​District Governor ​​
2021 -2022



From May District Newsletter:
As your District Governor in this month of Youth
Focus, I wanted to share with you a Thank You note from my Friend
Rotarian Mateo Karczmarczuk from Poland. Our District 7870
and his District 2231 have worked together to bring relief and
happier months to the Ukraine Youth being sheltered at our “The Little Prince” hospice. So, let’s continue to engage others who are like minded and wish for a peaceful world for the next generations’ children.
Dear John Bob,
Dear Friends
In recent days we were visited by a delegation of Ukrainian Rotarians with the current Governor of D-2232 Volodymyr Bondarenko to thank the Rotary Club Lublin Centrum (D-2231) for organizing assistance to Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees. I was obliged to give an especially heartfelt thank you to the American Rotarians of District 7870 New Hampshire/Vermont and personally to DG John Bob Siemienowicz. It is because of your District’s big heart and generosity that we were able to complete much needed humanitarian projects. So I extend these thanks and expressions of gratitude on behalf of the Rotarians of Ukraine. 
My Best Regards
Mateo
RC Lublin-Centrum D-2231
