The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise was honoured to welcome several distinguished guests from Rotary District 7090 for a recent meeting, including District Governor Aaron Carlson, Assistant District Governor Collins Acheampong, Polio Plus Society Chair Elaine Richard, and End Polio Now Chair Frank Adamson.

The speakers also highlighted opportunities for clubs to stay engaged at the district level and encouraged collaboration to strengthen Rotary’s reach and effectiveness. Members appreciated the opportunity to connect, ask questions, and learn more about how their efforts contribute to both local and global impact.
It was a motivating visit that reinforced the power of Rotary’s network and our shared commitment to Service Above Self.
