Larchmont Rotary’s Response to RI President Babalola’s Challenge
Community Resource Center Cooking to Grow Create Lasting Impact Larchmont Rotary

Rotary International President Olayinka H. Babalola’s 2026-27 theme, "Create Lasting Impact", challenges Rotarians to shift away from short-term, transactional charity and move toward deep, sustainable transformation.

Babalola’s framework rests on two interconnected ideas:

  1. Sustainable Community Solutions: Designing projects that tackle root causes, build local institutional capacity, and continue to thrive long after the initial push.

  2. Transformative Belonging & Engagement: Reinvigorating Rotary clubs by building authentic human connections, breaking through insular social bubbles, and demonstrating tangible value to retain and engage members.
