You are invited to a special District 7070 celebration of International Women's Day! We have invited some women who have contributed significantly to Rotary and have powerful stories to share about their unique Rotary journeys and making positive changes in their clubs and communities.

We look forward to hearing from

Sonam Choeden, Deb Murray and Lynda Ryder!

They will inspire us to make magic happen by getting involved and leading!

Women continue to be leaders and change agents in District 7070 and Rotary. Join us for an evening of conversation, motivation and fellowship!

District 7070 is incredible because of the many "Women of Action" who work passionately and tirelessly to make "magic" happen locally and globally!
