Cambridge Rotary Club

Today, I spoke at the Cambridge Rotary Club. The Cambridge Rotary Club is my sponsor club during my year in Cambridge. I had visited them once before for a breakfast meeting, but the lunch meeting had many more members in attendance so I was introduced to many new people. The lunch was delicious and my speech went very well. I had many compliments and was even encouraged by one of the member's to speak at Cambridge's Women in Science and Engineering Group. I was also put in touch with a contact at Jimmy's Night Shelter since I have been having trouble getting in touch with the volunteer coordinator there. Jimmy's Night Shelter's mission statement is: From 7pm to 9.30 am, we welcome anyone who would otherwise be forced to sleep rough either on the streets of Cambridge, or in a car park, or in a squat, or under a bridge. I have been hoping to volunteer there since last term but have now had the time to make it happen so hopefully I will hear back from them. I am looking forward to my next presentation at the District 1080 Council Meeting on January 28th.
