From Allen Kamemoto:
We are embarking on another Campus Beautification Project with Kalihi Elementary in July before the School starts, working with Eugene Price with Metro to decorate the steps in the school to foster School Pride. We have worked on various projects throughout the years and this one is similar to the one we did several years ago, but we will need help from other clubs. If you don't have a project in July, or your members just want to come out and do a good deed for an underserved school, please consider helping with this project. This project is in the start of the new Rotary year, so my apologies if you are not the Youth/Community Service chair, so if you could pass on the word, I'd appreciate it.
The project is scheduled for July 6th, from 8:00-noon, or "huki pau", which means finish when the work is completed. No skills or tools needed, but just a good attitude about helping kids develop a sense of belonging and school pride. With the help of all of you in some small way, we can do this. More details to follow shortly, but I wanted to get the word out early. Please let me know if your club would be interested or even onesies and twosies will make this a fun event!

Sustainable Cambodia/Honolulu Shriners Hospital
Jul 22, 2024
Mike Orbin is a member of the Bethlehem Morning Star Rotary Club, in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, located in eastern Pennsylvania. He has been a Rotarian since September 2018, initially a member with the Allentown Rotary Club. When a member of the Allentown Club he advocated for the Club's involvement in international projects and was instrumental in Allentown Rotary Club investing in the repair of a Pediatric Rigid Bronchoscope for a Children's Hospital in Morelia, Mexico in coordination with the Camelinas Rotary Club. He advocated to his Club to provide monies to the Rotary Club of Mfuwe, Zambia, during COVID, to make and distribute facemasks in their community, including more than 20 schools. For the last four years he has been an advocate and supporter of investing in sustainable educational, safe water, health care, food security, and income-generating programs in rural Cambodia with the Rotary Club of Pursat and Sustainable Cambodia, which has resulted this year in the Rotary District 7430’s involvement as a major partner of the Global Grant "Family Self-Reliance Through Village Empowerment" in year 2023-2024. This grant will benefit over 420 families and more than 2,500 people in 3 rural Cambodian villages. He will continue his efforts in the Bethlehem Club. In February 2023, his first return to Cambodia after COVID, he met for the first time one of the students he was sponsoring for educational enrichment classes. She had severe scoliosis and had never been to a doctor for her condition. After returning home he organized efforts to get medical treatments to correct her condition, successfully getting her admitted to Shriners Childrens Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii, with the support of friends, and Rotarians, throughout the world. With the excellent medical treatment she received and gracious support and care of the staff from Shriners, she is now being released to go home. It is an amazing change. She looks like a totally new person. A major impediment has been removed from her life giving her an opportunity to live a much healthier, successful, and less restrictive life. Mike has now returned to escort her and her sister home. |
