The 2024-25 Rotary 6250 District Governor Todd Restel is a member of Rotary Club of La Crosse and the CFO of First Supply – a company that distributes plumbing supplies. He shared a story from early in his career when he was puzzled by the excitement his colleagues had over the way a certain toilet flushed. But he has since realized the critical importance of plumbing when it comes to global health and its connection to Rotary’s efforts to improve clean water, sanitation and hygiene worldwide. He suggested we might consider talking or learning about a sanitation project on or around November 19 – World Toilet Day! Governor Restel also discussed District 6250’s designation as a “Global Peacebuilder District” and encouraged us to take the Rotary Positive Peace Academy Course to learn more about peace building strategies.
