Sally Blanchard
We would like to share that one of our fellow Rotarians, Sally Blanchard, was recently admitted to the ICU at The Queen's Medical Center.
We are grateful to report that we learned today that Sally has been moved out of the ICU and is stable and improving. At this time, visitors are not permitted, and her family from the mainland is by her side.
As additional information becomes available, we will keep the club informed. In the meantime, please keep Sally and her family in your hearts, thoughts, and prayers.

🌴 Rotary District 5000 Conference Recap
 
Mahalo to everyone who represented the Rotary Club of Waikiki at the District 5000 Conference this past weekend! We had outstanding club representation and heard that a great time was had by all.
 
A special shout-out to Dave Livingston, Patti Look, Janet Kelly, Aileen Fong, President Fred Brooks, Flora Lu, and Nathan Graves for representing our club. We've included a few photos from the conference for those who were unable to attend.
 
If you missed the conference, be sure to ask one of these Rotarians about their experience. We're sure they'll be happy to share stories and highlights!

This Week at Rotary: Chinese New Year, Valentine’s Day & our Guest Speaker!
Aloha Rotarians,  
 

We have an exciting meeting planned this week and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone there. Don't forget to invite your friends and family! 

This week, we’ll be celebrating Chinese New Year as well as Valentine’s Day.  Aileen Fong has been planning activities for these two festive occasions that bring joy, reflection, and connection. We encourage everyone to wear something red, festive, or Valentine‑themed to help us celebrate in true Rotary spirit.

In addition to the celebrations, we are thrilled to welcome our guest speaker who will be joining us to share valuable insights.

Join Keli‘i Akina with the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii to learn how grassroots advocacy turned into real legislative wins in 2025 and what lies ahead in 2026. The presentation highlights key efforts on tax relief, housing, rebuilding reforms, and government accountability, explains the challenges ahead, and shows how citizens can get involved in shaping Hawaii’s future.

Mahalo,
