Karin Davies with her granddaughter, Nami- a Rotary International donor
 
The Rotarian of the Day for the August 24, 2017 meeting was Karin Davies. Karin was joined by her 9 year-old granddaughter Nami, who helped Karin make 50 stockinette caps and kangaroo vests for the newborn resuscitation kits for her recent trip to Ethiopia as part of the ongoing Global Grant, “Saving Babies’ Lives in Ethiopia”.  While birthday present shopping recently, Nami came in under budget by $15, which Karin suggested she save for another time. Instead, Nami asked to donate that money to the Ethiopian neonatal resuscitation project, and she presented President Klaus Gubernator with money to deposit in the international services committee account dedicated to the project. Thank you to Nami- your thoughtfulness and generosity at such a young age is truly impressive!
