May 15, 2026: On Wednesday, May 20, 2026, Rotary Zones 28 & 32 will host Unite for Peace, a free worldwide Zoom gathering featuring Rotary Peace Fellows, musicians, storytellers, humanitarian leaders, and voices from communities affected by conflict and displacement. This is not a political event; it is an opportunity to listen, reflect, and explore how ordinary people around the world are building peace through courage, creativity, service, and human connection.
Rotary brings people together to take action in our communities and around the world.
District 7040 serves communities across southeastern Ontario, southwestern Quebec, Nunavut, and the North Country of New York State.
