Services
for deaf children
Chris
Kovar and Erin Donahue provided an informative presentation on services for
deaf children in Central New York.
Chris spoke about her organization, Whole Me, which
offers programs, activities and events designed to promote successful
communication and interaction between deaf/hard of hearing and hearing members
of the community.
As Chris explained, the majority of deaf and hard of
hearing children in this area attend school at the BOCES facility in
Solvay. The organization works to
encourage parents to learn sign language and also looks for opportunities to
work within the community creating awareness and ensure that deaf and hard of
hearing children and individuals have access to educational, social and
community resources.
Erin presented a video about New York’s relay
service. Sponsored by Sprint, the
service provides a caption service on the telephone keypad so that deaf and
hard of hearing individuals can carry on phone conversations.

Rotary
Timeline – 1905
Attorney Paul P.
Harris of Chicago, Ill., USA, envisions a new kind of group of professionals to
cultivate business ties and develop friendships. On the evening of 23
February, he invites three friends to a meeting and plants the seeds of the
world’ oldest and most prestigious service club organization.
As the club continues
to meet and add to its ranks, meetings rotate among members’ offices, and the
group begins to call itself the Rotary Club of Chicago.
Although early
meeting focused on fostering fellowship, before long, the founders would
discover a more profound purpose for their club. With in a year, the club
begins to formulate its basic tenets and principles in the form of a
constitution (later the Rotary Platform), which later evolves into the Object
of Rotary.
