President's Corner
 Welcome to The
Rotary Club of Hunt Valley!
You've probably heard a lot about us, but do you really know what Rotary is all
about?
We're not really a 'club', but we're an active, non-political, non-religious, service organization with over 1.2 million members
worldwide. We're not really a charity
either, but The Rotary Foundation is one of the largest volunteer-run charitable
foundations in the world. In fact, in 2007, the Bill & Melinda Gates
Foundation gave TRF over $100 million dollars for our global efforts in fighting
polio and other diseases, ending hunger, supporting education, and promoting
goodwill.
We are, however, business people, community leaders, parents, students, retirees
- really, we are just about anyone who is committed to helping people and making
our world a healthier, safer, and more peaceful place.
From our little place here in Hunt Valley, our members have personally changed -
and perhaps saved - lives in places like Malawi, Haiti, Kosovo, Kygryzstan,
and disaster areas throughout the US. And, we are equally committed to making a
difference right here in Maryland by partnering with our local schools and amazing
organizations like Casey
Cares, ACTC, Operation Warm, the MD Society for Sight, and many others.
And, it all starts with a very nice lunch each week at Hayfields Country Club. So
why not take an hour or so out of your week and experience for yourself what Rotary
is all about? You can even be my guest for lunch! Please
Email Me if you'd like more information.
It has never been easier to Make Dreams Real!
Yours in Service,
Greg Pierce
President, 2008-09
