The Rotary Club of North Minneapolis is hosting the Northside Ramble 2023!
 
It's happening on August 5th, and it's a perfect opportunity for us to come together, have a blast, and make a positive impact in our community.
 
By participating in the Northside Ramble, we'll get to explore the fascinating history of our neighborhood while supporting a great cause. Last year, we raised an incredible $5,126, providing 41 pairs of eyeglasses for Northside youth through Gotcha Glasses. Together, we can make an even greater difference this year!

OPEN WORLD PROGRAM 2024
CALL FOR HOSTS
 
Rotary International (RI) is pleased to announce new hosting opportunities under the Open World Program during the 2024 calendar/hosting year, which will mark the 25th anniversary of Rotary’s participation in the program.

The Open World Program is available to Rotary clubs in the United States and provides an opportunity to build fellowship and friendship to strengthen international understanding by hosting emerging Eurasian leaders from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Mongolia, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Solomon Islands, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, and Vietnam in your community.

Rotary clubs are needed to host six-participant delegations for eight days and nights and prepare a professional program related to business, community, and civic life in the United States. The program focuses on developing a network of leaders who have an understanding of how American communities deal with contemporary issues and want to maintain contact with their new American contacts and other counterparts. Often, these collaborations lead to service projects between Rotary clubs in the two countries.
 
The Open World program, operated by the Congressional Office for International Leadership (COIL) an independent U.S. federal agency, is a special program available to Rotary clubs in the United States through a grant secured by Rotary International. Please review the Rotary Open World brochure for more information.
 
RI serves as a national host organization, with Rotary clubs serving as local hosts for Open World delegations. Rotary clubs in 290 cities and 48 states have hosted over 4,000 of all 30,400 Open World participants throughout these years. RI can reimburse participating clubs for many of their hosting expenses through Open World grants.
