Our next Climate Cafe is Thursday, March 23rd at 6:30pm. Our topic is How to Talk About Climate Change. This can be challenging, including starting the conversation and responding to other people’s beliefs and feelings about the climate. In this session, we will explore ways to personally connect with others to create a safe space for climate conversations, including listening to people with doubtful or dismissive beliefs.
Our guest will be Dr. Matthew Ballew, Ph.D., Research Specialist at the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. Click HERE to get more information or to register.

I am pleased to announce that we far exceeded my District goal of $5,000 for TRF PolioPlus Fund by triple the amount ($15,000) and with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation 2:1 match, we raised $45,000 total. So to meet my obligations, I and two other 7910 Rotarians (District Membership Chair Tracy Gagnon (RC Fitchburg) and President Robert Boley (RC Westward) did the Polar Plunge in the snow and frigid waters of Boston Harbor on March 4. Tracy went way beyond the call of duty. We thank the Belle Isle and Parkway Rotary Clubs of District 7930 for hosting this extraordinary event with 10 people plunging and over 75 people enjoying the warmth of the fellowship. Check out the YouTube video chronicling the day at the East Boston Yacht Club.
The Westford Rotary Club in connection with author Shirley Holdman (member of the Billerica Rotary Club) and the Billerica Adventure Series has introduced the children’s book, “This is My Community,” which talks about Racial Diversity and Inclusion. It was first introduced at the Westford Remembers “International Block Party” in the Fall of 2022 and followed this Winter 2023 by donating the books for the 1st-2nd grades classrooms at Miller, Nabnasset, Abbot Elementary Schools and the Roudenbush Community Center Afterschool Program.
In Westford and Billerica public schools, they are using the book as a classroom reading activity and discussion book. The book is written for K-2 grades.
The Club has displayed and donated, “This is My Community” book to the Westford Community and students as part of the ongoing Westford Rotary Cultural/Diversity/Education Projects.

March 13, 2023 from Tracy Gagnon, Chair, Rotary 7910 Membership Committee Chair
Greetings Fellow Rotarians,
Oh, what fun…it was to be at NE PETS last weekend!!! Truly and honestly, there is nothing more energizing than being in a room full of people who’s hearts and minds are about service and the power of uniting for good.
As District 7910 membership chair, I am thinking about trying a few things this year focused on "HUBs" and Youth.
Looking for a good speaker? On our Speakers Bureau page, you'll find topics and speakers that other Clubs recommend, such as:
Jane Schroeder, ESSEX Coordinator.
The Rotary Youth Exchange Program with Eastern States Student Exchange (ESSEX) encourages young people ages 15-18 years old to live and attend school in another country for one academic year.
Steve Fine, Founder and President, Melanoma Education Foundation
The American Cancer Society has predicted nearly 200,000 new U.S. melanoma cases this year.
Melanoma is usually fatal when detected late but is easily curable without chemo or radiation when found early.
Vision: Together we seek to address the climate crisis and pollution, and protect the environment for current and future generations as the ultimate expression of Service Above Self.
