Hong Kong Fire Disaster 
Dear Fellow Rotarians,
I am writing to ask for your support and compassion in reaching out to our sister Club Hong Kong Island West Rotary, regarding a devastating fire disaster that recently occurred there. The fire destroyed seven 31-story high-rise residential buildings, displacing approximately 2,000 families and resulting in 350+ casualties. Many residents lost their homes, lives and all of their belongings.
Please note that at this time, the West Honolulu Rotary Club has lost its 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, and therefore any donations made through our club would not be tax-deductible. Despite this limitation, we are hopeful that our shared commitment to humanitarian service and international fellowship will inspire voluntary support.
  • Supporting this relief effort personally if you are able, and send your donation to treasurer Chrysti Chun, pay to West Honolulu Rotary, and once we collected the checks, we will buy a cashiers check to send to HKIWR.  I can bring the check to Hong Kong during my January 3 visit.
Thank you for your continued dedication to Rotary and for considering this request during such a difficult time for our fellow Sister Club members abroad.
 
With gratitude and Rotary fellowship,

RI President's message

This month’s special issue of Rotary magazine is all about happiness, that most elemental of human yearnings. More than a feeling, though, this state of positive well-being, and the conditions necessary to create and sustain it, should be considered a universal right. December also marks Rotary’s Disease Prevention and Treatment Month, when we highlight our members’ work to promote health and wellness, including mental wellness.

Message from The Pantry: 

Aloha Rotary Club Team,

Mahalo nui loa for supporting our Monday, November 24th distribution! We are truly grateful for the time, energy, and aloha your members brought to The Pantry. Your teamwork helped make the day run smoothly, and your presence made such a meaningful impact.

Thanks to your help, we were able to serve:
• 98 households
• 367 individuals

We would absolutely love to have your group back in the future. If you're ever interested in organizing another volunteer day — whether monthly, quarterly, or simply whenever it works for your club — I’m more than happy to create a custom landing page just for your event. This makes it easy for everyone to register in one place and helps us keep your group together on the schedule.

I also want to mahalo you again for your patience yesterday and for all the support your team brought. We appreciate you more than you know and hope to welcome you back again soon.

Mahalo Nui!
