JOINT MEETING WITH SACRAMENTO BREAKFAST
Our joint meeting with the Sacramento Breakfast Club was great!  We met at Evan's Kitchen for a delicious breakfast and were warmly welcomed by their president, Cassandra Ferrannini and members.  
 
Once the meeting was called to order and had announcements, we listened to Tim Bryan from Crowe Horwath talk about cyberattacks.  He works as a Forensic Accountant and helps clients with cyber issues.  The timing of this speaker couldn't have been better given the latest security breach of Equifax.  Continue reading to see his handout on how to be prepared for a cyberattack.

LET'S HELP END POLIO
 
WE ARE SO CLOSE
 
The end of polio is within our grasp and organizations all over the world have pledged funds to ensure we realize our shared goal.  Rotary has committed to raising $50 million a year for the next three years so we can finish the job.  If we can reach the $50 million mark each year, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has pledged to match our contribution 2-to-1.  That means a total contribution of $450 million!
For more information on the status of Rotary's efforts and how you personally can help, continue reading.
