District Governor Garrett Capobianco's February Message
 
 
 
February is Rotary’s Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention Month, a time to reflect on our role as peacemakers in a complex world. District Governor Garrett Capobianco reminds us that peace is more than the absence of conflict, it is the presence of understanding, compassion, and collaboration across cultures and communities.
Together, let’s lead with empathy, listen with intention, and take meaningful action that fosters dialogue and unity. Through service above self, we can help build lasting peace and create stronger, more connected communities, one relationship, one conversation, and one act of service at a time.

R.I. President Francesco Arezzo's February Message
Let Action Define Us.
 
At last month’s International Assembly, President-elect Olayinka “Yinka” Hakeem Babalola called on members of the Rotary world to live out our presidential message for the 2026-27 Rotary year: Create Lasting Impact.

This February, as we observe Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention Month, we have an opportunity to channel Yinka’s call to action into real change. Peace is not simply the absence of war. A life free from conflict but marked by hunger, instability, or the inability to care for one’s family is not true peace. Peace requires liberty, opportunity, and respect for human dignity. Yet fear often blocks that path — fear of change, of cultural loss, of people we don’t understand
