We’re pleased to welcome Jackie Knough, Executive Director of Our Kids Count, as our guest speaker.
For more than 30 years, Our Kids Count has been quietly strengthening families across Thunder Bay, meeting people where they are and providing practical support when it is needed most. From food security and parenting programs to counselling, mentoring, home visits and support for new parents, their work begins by listening to families and building programs around what they actually need.
Jackie will share a little about the people behind this important local organization, the challenges families in our community are facing, and the incredible difference that can be made when a community chooses to wrap around its children and families.

We’re pleased to welcome Erin Beagle, Executive Director of Roots Community Food Centre (formerly Roots to Harvest), as our guest speaker. What began with a simple idea of using food to create opportunities for young people has grown into something much bigger. Today, Roots uses food as a way to bring people together, build skills, create meaningful employment and make good food more accessible, while ensuring dignity and belonging always have a place at the table. Erin has been part of that journey from the beginning, helping Roots grow from its early youth-focused work into Northern Ontario’s first Community Food Centre, serving youth, seniors, Elders, newcomers and neighbours from across Thunder Bay. |

 On Friday, October 23 at 9:00 AM, Rotary will join the City of Thunder Bay at City Hall for an End Polio Proclamation and Flag Raising in recognition of World Polio Day.
More than raising a flag, this is an opportunity to raise awareness. For decades, Rotary members around the world have worked toward the goal of eradicating polio, and this local event is a visible reminder that the work continues. It is also a chance to share Rotary’s story with our community and show what can happen when people come together behind a common purpose.
