ÕNNITLEME!

Lp. klubivennad

Aasta viimane õhtu tõi kurvastava sõnumi: meie hulgast lahkus kauaaegne klubivend,

klubimeister Tõnu Laks.

Tõnu oli ainult 56 aastane. Täis elutahet, ettevõtlikkust ja tegutsemislusti. Tõnu vedas pikka

aega meie klubi spordiüritusi. Tema organiseeritud välisreisid olid alati väga meeleolukad.

Üritustel, kus Tõnu viibis, võis olla teisi esinejaid aga üheks põhitegijaks kujunes alati Tõnu.

Tema oli tihti seltskonna hing. Nagu ta ise ütles: „My name is Laks. Sir Tõnu Laks“.

Sügava kurbusega mäletame lahkunud klubivenda.

Urmas Rahnel

Teave sekretärilt. Palun kõigil aegsasti teatada enda ettekande teema! Oleme saanud kutse osalemaks 6. veebruaril 2016 teatris Endla heategevuslikul etendusel „Tramm nimega Iha“. Tegemist on naiste Lions klubi Pärnu Koidula iga-aastase projektiga, mille tuludega aidatakse Pärnu Toimetulekukooli. Küsi pileteid sekretärilt. 28.mai – 1.juuni 2016 Rotary International Convention Koreas , Soulis.

9.jaanuaril jätsid klubivennad koos väga paljude leinajatega hüvasti Tõnuga. Leinatalitus

toimus hotell Strand suures konverentsisaalis.

Tihti valitakse mõne piirkonna või kollektiivi sädeinimest. Leinasaali seinale oli projekteeritud

Tõnu pilt, kus ta hoiab käes põlevat säraküünalt. Oma tavalise rõõmsa muigega. See viimane foto

jääbki meile Tõnu meenutama kui üht sädeinimest.

Kogu leinatalitus oli läbi viidud väga hästi. Ka muusika valik „Speak Softly, Love“ ja

„El Condor Pasa“ ning teised palad olid läbi mõeldud ning puudutasid täpselt Tõnu elu ja selle

möödumist.

Urni ja raamitud foto saalist välja kandmise au anti just Tõnu Rotary klubi kaaslastele, president

Urmasele ja Viljarile. Head teed tähtede poole! Nagu soovis seda ka proua, kes talitust läbi viis.

Kristjan räägib meile Facebookiga seonduvast.

Millest kõnelevad Facebooki profiili- ja taustapildid. Kas annavad need inimese kohta aimu?

Klubi koosolekul teeb

ettekande Kristjan Puusild

Avamine kell 12. Kohal oli 30 liiget, kohaloleku protsent 81. President avas koosoleku , protokollis sekretär. Läinud aasta viimastel tundidel lahkus meie seast igavikku Tõnu Laks. Jüri Feofanovil oli ettevalmistatud fotode klipp Tõnu tegemistest. President pidas kõne Tõnu meenutuseks ning palus kõigil mälestada lahkunut minutilise leinaseisakuga. Samuti võeti pits viina klubivenna mälestuseks. Tõnu elule tegi tagasivaate ning kommenteeris eredamaid seiku Mati Tiimus - sõber ja kaaslane ülikoolis, ühikas, töös ja Rotary klubis. Klubivendade meenutused- Tõnu sattus oma ülevoolava energia tõttu nii Venemaa kui muu maailma televisiooni. Huvitavaid seiku meenutati koos käidud reisimistelt kogu maailmast. Tõnu oli kohusetundlik, samuti olid tema korraldatud kalastamise võistlused huvitavad. Tõnu iseloomustasid kiire taip ja ideede genereerimise võime. Ta luges palju ajakirjandust ja populaarteaduslikku materjali. Tõnu toetas nõu ja jõuga abivajajaid ning heade ideede ellu viimist. President tegi lühiülevaate lähenevatest üritustest, millest võimalik osa võtta.

Foundation honoree creates opportunities for the poor.

For her work to mitigate extreme poverty around the world, Susan Davis has received many honors. But the 2015-16 Rotary Foundation Global Alumni Service to Humanity Award has special significance.

“It feels like a circle of completion,” says Davis, who was a Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholar in 1980-81, doing graduate studies in international relations at Oxford University in England. “Rotary invested in me when I was young, and now is celebrating the harvest.”

A decade ago, Davis co-founded BRAC USA to advance the mission of BRAC -- Bangladesh Rehabilitation Assistance Committee -- the world's largest nongovernmental development organization, which was founded after Bangladesh’s partition from Pakistan in the 1970s. The U.S. branch is dedicated to fighting poverty and to creating opportunities for the poor in Africa and elsewhere.

Fulfilling that mission hasn’t been easy. Davis’ work has been disrupted by floods, cyclones, earthquakes, and war. Even worse was the sudden and deadly Ebola epidemic in 2014 in West Africa. “I wasn't sure how to protect our staff and clients and accompany these vulnerable communities out of this tragic situation,” says Davis, who served as BRAC USA’s president and chief executive officer until her departure this month. She quickly contacted Ebola experts and connected them with BRAC USA’s representatives in affected countries. “I lost sleep and cried with each death,” she says.

Two of those deaths were particularly painful. Ophilia Dede, a BRAC credit officer in Liberia, and her husband succumbed to the virus, leaving behind a little girl. Davis helped set up a scholarship fund for her education. But she doesn’t allow such painful experiences to deter her.

“The urgency of the need and the tangible opportunities to make a difference keep me going,” she says. “And I have been blessed by seeing two big ideas — microfinance and social entrepreneurship — take root globally.”

From 1987 to 1991, Davis championed microfinance while working as a program officer with the Ford Foundation in Bangladesh. She developed a consortium that raised $175 million, increasing the availability of microloans in Bangladeshi villages to 44 percent from 5 percent, she says. Though debates endure over how much credit microfinance should receive for the country’s progress, conditions in Bangladesh have improved significantly: According to The Economist, life expectancy in the country rose from 59 to 69 during a 20-year span ending in 2010.

Davis also is co-author, with journalist David Bornstein, of the book “Social Entrepreneurship: What Everyone Needs to Know.” And she is involved with Ashoka, a nonprofit organization that supports social entrepreneurship; as a director, she oversaw its expansion to the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia.

A resident of New York City, Davis is widely recognized for her work in the field of international development. She was appointed to the board of the United Nations Fund for International Partnership in 2012, is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and has served on the boards of the Grameen Foundation, the Sirleaf Market Women's Fund, and the African Women's Development Fund USA. Davis has come a long way from the small town in southwest Louisiana, USA, where she grew up. The Rotary scholarship provided her first opportunity to live abroad. She believes that her Oxford experience allowed her to be taken seriously, and credits it with helping her land a job with the Ford Foundation.

Perhaps most importantly, says Davis, that Rotary-sponsored year gave her an entirely new perspective on power and privilege. “Oxford was larger than life in my imagination,” she recalls. “But when I became a part of Oxford and got to know the dons and the students, I realized that, whether rich or poor, we were all just human beings and all of us were vulnerable and full of imperfections.”

Davis will be honored at the Rotary International Convention in Korea in June.
