■President’s Remarks by President Aoyanagi
The funds from the Niko Niko Box are used to support service activities. Specifically, this includes initiatives such as MMM, medical assistance for maternal and child health in Zambia, and support for Yoneyama scholars, Rotary Foundation scholars and CIS Interact club activities. Starting this Rotary year, online donations to the Niko Niko Box have also become available. We greatly appreciate your cooperation with your message.
■Secretary’s Report by Secretary Takiya
• On behalf of Committee Chair Kohei Ogaki, I will present this year’s Activity Plan for the Yoneyama Memorial Scholarship Committee. As the host club for Ms. Rebecca LeVeque, our committee will support her and create opportunities to promote interaction between the scholar and our members, thereby fostering a deeper understanding of and appreciation for the Yoneyama Scholarship Program. We will also set a contribution goal of ¥10,000 per member for regular donations and ¥10,000 for special donations. During the October Enhancement Month, we will invite the scholar to give a speech.
• A notice from the World Polio Day Executive Committee: World Polio Day will be held at Tokyo Tower on Saturday, October 17th 2026, from 11:00 to 16:00. Details and registration information will be provided around August.
