History and Challenges of the Rotary Vocational Fund of Arizona
Jan 05, 2021 6:30 AM
Jeanie Morgan is currently a member of the Rotary Club of Mesa West. She originally joined the London Bridge Rotary Club in Lake Havasu City in December, 1994. She remained an active member of London Bridge Rotary until relocating to Chandler in 2017. Jeanie enjoys the international understanding many of Rotary’s programs promote. She enjoyed hosting Youth Exchange students and inbound Group Study Exchange Teams. In 2005, she led a GSE team to District 4180 in Mexico. While there, she witnessed life-changing programs which enabled people to help themselves. She clearly understood that enabling independence is much better than offering temporary help and support. Jeanie was honored to serve as District Governor in District 5490 in 2009-10. After serving as District Governor, Jeanie had to take some time off from positions in Rotary that involved travel away from home. Her priority for a few years was being a family caregiver while she still had to good fortune to spend time with her husband Al. After losing Al in late 2017, Jeanie again found available time and wanted to help effect positive change through Rotary-related service. She joined The Rotary Vocational Fund of Arizona board in the spring of 2018. Shortly after joining the TRVFA board, she was saddened when the TRVFA board had to make the decision to reduce the maximum grant from $3,000 to $2,000. The decision was necessary to enable TRVFA to assist more students. On July 18, 2020, Jeanie was honored to be elected to serve as the President of TRVFA. Jeanie wants to inspire higher levels of support so TRVFA can make a forever difference in the lives of many more of those who want to lift themselves and their dependents from a life of poverty. She wants to help more students each year than the last and increase the maximum grant back to at least $3,000. Her focus will be on expanding the donor base and earning the loyalty of all TRVFA donors. |

Speed Reading
Mar 02, 2021 7:00 AM
(From the Rotary club of Austin) Recently presenting to his Rotary Club, Howard Berg said, “It all started in Brooklyn.” He is from New York, and as a child he felt that the “one consistently safe place” was the library. He attended college at SUNY Binghamton, while also working several jobs. He sought out ways to increase his productivity, and this resulted in completing his course requirements rapidly; for example, reading 48 books in only 3 days toward his science degree. He was able to complete both his degree in Biology and a 4-year Psychology program in only 1 year. He shared several case studies of young students who have participated in his program to read and study faster. Most of them were younger than 20 years old and graduated college, law school, or post-graduate school so quickly that by the time they were in their early 20’s they were already securing successful careers. Howard shared 3 main points of his learning program: Information overload, “waking up” your emotional state, and memory. Point 1: The problem of information overload. We are constantly bombarded with an excess of information, and our brains struggle to process it. As tips to start teaching yourself to read faster, he shared these steps: First, read the page of a book at your normal pace. Then, re-read that page with your hand/finger moving along each row and focus on following your hand/finger to read. Over time you will find yourself reading about 20% faster, collecting the information you need instead of concentrating on every word. Point 2: The most important skill of all may be to recognize your emotional state. Howard invited the crowd to participate in an exercise. Everyone stood and touched each of their shoulders with the opposite hand, then each knee, and then put a hand in the air, made a fist and said “I feel great!” Howard explained that people, organizations, and companies need to be aware of both how they are creating emotional states (such as “I feel great!”) and of how they are extinguishing emotional interference (such as “I can’t do that.”). Point 3: Memory. Most of us use visual and aural queues to remember things more productively than just reading the information. This relates to how one can better study subjects like math. While some students may not understand math concepts immediately or think they are “not good at math” it’s possible to explain it to them in a different way to allow their brain to pair visual and aural queues. In another audience exercise, Howard presented a series of numbers, 1 through 10, with a picture of an object and a phrase that related that object to the number (for example “1 for pole”, “2 for shoes”, and “3 for tricycle”). This learning method was to make it easier for people to memorize an association of numbers. We heard another successful case study about a man named Brad V. who was able to complete his undergraduate degree in college in only 6 months, while also learning Chinese in 3 weeks, so he could achieve his goal to be a traveling missionary. Mr. Berg finished his presentation by sharing his desire to help kids and schools with potentially free/no cost programs that teach his learning method.

Four-Way Speech Contest
Apr 20, 2021
The Four Way Test is one of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of ethics, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four Way is still relevant today and transcends generations and national boundaries. The Four-Way Test has captured the imaginations of generations of Rotarians as a simple checklist to help ensure that we are applying this positive and powerful ethics code to how we try to live our lives and serve others. 1. Is it the truth? One student from each of the six Chandler Unified School District six high schools will participate in a speech contest. In the speech, the student will show the application of the Rotary Four-Way Test in our everyday relationships with other people. The speeches will show clearly the practical application of all four points of the Rotary Four-Way Test to what is going on in today’s world or to a student’s life of today.
