Rotary District 5000 members come together to celebrate The Rotary Foundation accomplishment and meet Larry Lunsford will be the Rotary International President 2027-2028. Net proceeds from this event will benefit The Rotary Foundation to further our efforts to do good in the world.

He has served on RI and Rotary Foundation committees, including the RI and Foundation finance and executive committees, and chaired the RI Membership Growth Committee and Rotary Peace Centers Committee.
His passion for Rotary service began during his college years. In 1981-82, he traveled to Australia as a Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholar, which he called a “nine-month daily immersion in Rotary.”

The dinner will be a benefit for the Rotary Foundation. Individual tickets for Oahu residents will be $150 each. The price for neighbor island residents will be $100.
