On July 28th, 2021, Richmond Rotary held it's Annual General Meeting at Continental Seafood Restaurant.

 

The AGM was Richmond Rotary's first ever Hybrid annual general meeting and it was a well attended event.  Jimmy Yan joined the board as did Zach Segal. Director at Large Cindy Lau stepped down, as did Community Chair Gary Yang. They will still remain active members of the Rotary team! 

 

Gary Chan, Yuhan Chen and Chantelle Roy all took on new committee chair roles for 2021-2022.

 

 

Richmond Rotary was honored to have Member of Parliament Kenny Chiu and Councilor Chak Au in attendance.

 

Richmond Rotary has done a remarkable job in expanding it's membership over the last number of years. From a small and dwindling membership, we are growing into a robust, active and dynamic Rotary club. We have a lot to be proud of, and our last few Past Presidents have done a remarkable job at reviving our club. 

However, for the last 20 years, Rotary membership around the world has remained stagnant. That is why, through a program called Each One, Bring One, RI President Shekhar Mehta is asking everyone to commit to welcoming one new person into Rotary in the next 12 months. This one act of growing Rotary will help us achieve in just 12 months what we could not do in 20 years. 
 

We have resources available to learn how to grow, retain and expand membership. Make sure to visit here to learn more.

 

Our neighboring Rotary Club, Steveston Rotary, has created a limited edition Steveston Rotary Lager to raise more funds for Lytton.

 

If you like beer, and want to support our friends in Lytton, you need to buy this lager! 

 

100% of the proceeds will go to the Lytton Fire Fund to help families directly affected by the wildfires.

 

 

For a small donation of $20.00, Steveston Rotary will send you a 6 pack of this great tasting beer.
