JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE RIP BARRY'S YEAR!
OCTOBER IS ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT MONTH
Our relevance as an organization is directly related to our community involvement. The second object of Rotary pitches us directly to the communities we serve, because that is where Rotary work begins. Each community has its unique needs and concerns, and we have a proven record of addressing them.
When Rotary started on February 23, 1905 on that faithful day in RM 711 of the unity building in downtown Chicago, the basic principle of professional diversity(Classification) was established.

This EPCP goal was discussed and enthusiastically received by The Department of Labour.
As it happens, our EPCP community impact goal compliments an intitative, undertaken by The Department of Labour and The Ministry of National Security, funded by a grant from the International Development Bank and expected to run over a five year period.

Under the EPCP, qualifed persons must be participants in one or more of the numerous civic organizations in The Bahamas.
The expected success of the RCEN's Vocation Service EPCP program initiative, will benefit from an allied and cooperative effort of all civic organizations in The Bahamas and The Department of Labour.
January is Vocational Service month in Rotary District 7020 and as we continue to serve the community, your VSC thanks you for your support.
The VSC welcomes new members and asks all to stay tuned for more updates and action this month.
