Creating Lasting Impact

North Fulton Rotary explores veteran support projects with Johns Creek Veterans Association

 

For the 2026-27 Rotary year our Rotary International President is Olayinka (Yinka) Babalola, who has introduced this year's theme Create Lasting Impact. At the same time, District Governor Cynthia Edwards has asked all clubs in District 6900 to consider projects through the lens of peace. Our North Fulton Rotary Club sees a clear way to embrace both priorities.

One initiative our club is exploring is a partnership with the Johns Creek Veterans Association to assist local veterans with small home repair and landscaping projects, including accessibility improvements. By helping veterans with practical needs around their homes, we hope to bring greater comfort, stability, and peace of mind to those who have served our country. 

Beyond these hands-on projects, we also hope to promote peace through education, by sharing veterans' stories and fostering a deeper understanding of military service and sacrifice within our community.

We're excited about the potential of this initiative and will share more details as plans develop. Stay tuned for updates on opportunities to get involved and help our local veterans.
