District 5960 Shines at RI Convention in Calgary



 

It was an exciting time in Calgary at the RI Convention and there were a number of Rotarians from District 5960 in attendance and representing our district. Our district’s very own LIFT program was featured in several ways at the conference. RAGCED (Rotary Action Group for Community Economic Development) had added the LIFT program as one of their featured programs at their RAGCED booth in the House of Friendship. Rick Heidick was at the booth and was able to engage many Rotarians from around the world to explain the fundamentals of the LIFT program, network, and develop possibilities for collaboration. On Monday, June 23rd, RAGCED arranged a breakout session to present their four top CED programs, and the LIFT program was selected as one of the four. Rick was able to present the LIFT program to a packed room of Rotarians interested in community economic development.
