This week is a big meeting for us! We are presenting this year’s scholarship award recipients with their scholarships. This is one of my favorite days! We are giving $135,000 in scholarships on Thursday. We will be meeting in the Big Room (Ventura Room) at the Poinsettia and will welcome students, parents, teachers, administrators and other mentors in these students’ lives. I look forward to seeing everyone.
In service,
Dawn Knowles
President 2024-2025

Katharine Hayhoe explains the enormity of our climate crisis, how it magnifies virtually every other serious challenge, and how all hope is not lost. Not by a long shot
We are a nonpolitical, nonsectarian social organization comprising local business, civic and professional leaders. We meet regularly to get to know each other, form friendships and through that we are able to solve community and global problems with service projects. Like:
Scholarships at 5 local high schools,
Interact Clubs at 3 local schools.
Support the YMCA, City Center, Ventura Botanical Gardens
Promote literacy and career guidance in schools
Internationally we support an orphanage & school in Uganda and contribute to eliminating Polio worldwide.
The Rotary Club of Ventura-East meets Thursday noon to 1:30 at the Poinsettia Pavilion in Ventura. Come and learn more about Rotary's humanitarian service, high ethical standards in all vocations and help build good will in this community. Use your professional skills and talents to make a difference.
