Her foundation i s inviting 700 community members from the Concord area to the Nashoba Bro oks event. This is a perfect chance to showcase Rotary to folks who may n ot be familiar with our amazing work. If you want to share this informa tion with others in our District\, I have attached the final press relea se and flier for the event at Nashoba Brooks School on October 28th and t he flier for the event in Wellesley on October 29th. I believe this repre sents an opportunity to promote “membership”\, keeping in mind the recent “brainstorming” that revealed how meaningful it can be to bring a prospe ctive new member to hear and see what Rotary does (versus just attending a weekly meeting). Therefore\, I have copied some of the folks on the mem bership committee if they want to share this event with membership chairs and other district membership committee members. The event\, an exclus ive sneak preview of the work-in-progress documentary What Tomorrow Bring s\, will feature live Q&A with award-winning filmmaker Beth Murphy of Pri nciple Pictures and humanitarian Razia Jan of Razia’s Ray of Hope Foundat ion\, a 501C3 based in Wellesley\, MA which founded and operates a school for young girls in Afghanistann called the Zabuli Education Center. Her nonprofit foundation has just broken ground on the first-ever college for women in rural Afghanistan\, which is sited next to the Zabuli Education Center. The presentation will highlight Razia’s work and feature excerpt s from the film. Razia Jan\, a longtime Rotarian\, is truly an inspiring example of how one person can change the lives of so many in need. I was fortunate to see this presentation at the recent Zone training – this presentation was the opening plenary session for the Zone event. It’s de finitely worth attending – she is inspiring and amazing! No one will regr et attending one of these presentations!
