STEP UP TREASURE VALLEY MARCH 5
If you missed our sold-out Join or Die film screening last year, this is your chance to experience it! If you attended and loved it, join us again to watch the film—and more!
 
Step Up Treasure Valley, hosted by Rotary District 5400, is more than a film screening. It’s a call to action, bringing together passionate individuals and organizations to strengthen our communities.
 
Why This Event Matters to Rotarians
Rotary is built on service, leadership, and connection. Yet, like many organizations, we face challenges in growing and sustaining membership. Meanwhile, countless individuals in our community want to get involved but don’t know where to start. Step Up Treasure Valley bridges that gap.
 
This event isn’t just for those looking to join Rotary—it’s for us as Rotarians to:
✅ Inspire new members – Show them the impact of Rotary.
✅ Strengthen our clubs – Engage current members in fresh, meaningful ways.
✅ Lead by example – Be part of the movement to re-energize community involvement.

EMMANUEL IN GHANA REPORTS
The sheer amount of plastics and cardboard that Emmanuel and his "agents" is astounding! His report this week included this amazing statement: "Within a space of 5 days, one of our agents has been able to double her production quantity. I have come to know that if you motivate the vulnerable and help them to evolve with positive energy, their output is beyond normal expectations."
