Our program this week featured a classification talk by member Will Rathbone. Will was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. He is also a US and UK citizen. He grew up in Florida and attended college at Temple where he played football. He placed offensive line until a lumbar injury ended that career. He then went to Villanova for law school. He was recruited by Fitzpatrick, Lentz, and Bubba and fell in love with Bethlehem. He is an Eagle Scout. He has one sister who is in nursing school in Scranton. His mom has moved up to PA and his father lives in Canada, where he has been a Rotarian since the 1980's. Will is interested in youth programs and getting more involved in service.

More than 100 separate brushfires in Australia have damaged hundreds of homes and forced mass evacuations. Rotary clubs are taking action to provide immediate relief to those affected by the fires. Rotary has a Disaster Response Fund which following a natural disaster like the fires in Australia ensures we can deliver supplies, provide health care, and support rebuilding efforts. By making a donation today, you can help Rotarians respond swiftly and effectively, bringing hope to those whose lives have been affected by disaster.
