Past and Future, woven together. #Rotary25 #CalgaryAB

We are in Calgary for the International Rotary Convention! 🇨🇦 #Rotary25

As the #Rotary25 Convention brings together leaders and changemakers from across the globe, we’re proud to celebrate this extraordinary partnership and all those who have helped drive it forward.

With great excitement at the #Rotary25 opening session, we announced a renewed partnership with the Gates Foundation, pledging up to US$450 million over the next three years to #EndPolio.

This is more than funding. This is a renewed promise to future generations.

We also want to give a big thanks to REM5 Studios, the Gates Foundation, and @unicefusa.org for bringing the immersive VR experience back to convention, plus a new video from @unicef.org!

I have never left a Rotary International Convention without being more committed to the work of this essential humanitarian organization and feeling more energized than when I arrived. Calgary was no exception! #Rotary25 #ServiceAboveSelf

"Every day of my life I see legs paralyzed from the effects of childhood polio."

Polio survivor, Rotary member, and Team #EndPolio athlete Ferris said it best during #Rotary25 General Session on Tuesday: "When it comes to ending polio, failure is not an option." #VaccinesSaveLives #PublicHealth

🐎 Relay racing, barrel racing, bull riding, saddle bronc, and hoop dance at #Rotary25. Just a small look at what the Calgary Stampede ("The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth") must be like each year.

Rotarians: As our convention draws to close, let's make our Vision a reality: "Together, we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change — across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves." #Rotary25 #ServiceAboveSelf

Rotary clubs worldwide are gathering in Calgary for #Rotary25 to celebrate global impact!

We're proud to be supported by 16 Rotary clubs across Canada. Thank you, #PeopleOfAction, for helping Afghan women and girls access education.

Today at #Rotary25, a Nobel Peace Laureate, journalist, and human rights activist from Yemen talked about how we need strong world leaders who will bring about peace. She mentioned the US and other countries where our rights are at risk.

Appallingly, people booed her. (Cont. in comments)
