To District 7430 Rotarians,
 
We have all received numerous emails about social distancing, washing our hands and being safe during this serious COVID-19 outbreak.  While we must heed all of these health and safety recommendations, we are also "People of Action" and there are people in our communities needing our help in many different ways. With this in mind, we are asking Rotarians to communicate these needs and stories of caring.  So far, we have identified three ways to do this:
1. Club Facebook Pages - Please share both local needs and stories of caring on your club Facebook pages and we will re-post on the District Facebook Page for broader communication.  
2. District 7430 CAREmongers Facebook group - We have set up a Facebook group on our District 7430 Facebook page called "District 7430 CAREmongers" which you can join to share community needs so that others can help you address them (link is https://www.facebook.com/groups/645429832900910/).  
3. email - For those who don't use Facebook, please share needs and stories of caring by responding to this email and we will do our best to communicate more broadly.  
 
Lets make a difference safely in our communities.
 
Finally, I would like to thank you for all your words of encouragement that I have received in the past day after sending out the District Conference cancellation notice.  It was very heartwarming to hear from all of you on that difficult day.  We are talking about a possible event in the early fall.  Stay tuned. 
 
Yours in Rotary,
DG Herb
