SUMMARY:Bill Toone\, Founder- ECOLIFE Conservation/Monarch Butterflies
DESCRIPTION:Rotary Clubs all over the U.S. have begun a project to restore habitat for the beautiful\, but threatened Monarch butterflies (Operation Pollination). As you may know\, the butterflies have an extraordinary migration pattern. They fly from Mexico to Canada and back. No single butterfly can do it. It takes FOUR generations! Their population is declining because habitat and food sources are being destroyed. \nBill Toone\, a world-renowned conservation biologist and a spokesperson for endangered species\, will join us and give us a look into the world of the Monarch butterfly. We will learn about their extraordinary migration\, their lifecycle\, threats\, and programs helping their recovery. \nBill has worked around the globe\, experiencing the world’s natural wonders as well as its misunderstood cultures. From the foothills of California where he pioneered the early years of the California condor recovery program to the remote forests of Madagascar where Bill had his life forever changed\, he has collected unusual stories of wildlife and the people who depend on them. Bill specialized in rain forest transects and remote field conservation programs for the Zoological Society of San Diego. \nHe co-founded ECOLIFE Conservation in 2003. ECOLIFE approaches conservation holistically\, addressing the biggest threats to life on earth. They focus on providing simple solutions to the leading causes of wildlife extinctions and human deaths. \n

SUMMARY:Steph Johnson-Executive Director/Creative Director\, Voices of Our City Choir
DESCRIPTION:President Chris’ initiative for 2020-2021 is to build awareness and action around homelessness in San Diego. This makes the program on October 15 one he is excited to share with the club: Musician/Jazz vocalist Steph Johnson\, is the Executive and Creative Director and Co-Founder of Voices of Our City Choir\, the “Golden Buzzer” semi-finalists on America’s Got Talent Season 15. \nSteph and her team are changing lives of our unsheltered neighbors through music. She noticed the suffering and began outreach that brought food\, clothing\, blankets and friendship to people experiencing homelessness. Inspiration came from doing outreach and discovering that many people living on the streets were artists and musicians with no outlet\, and so began Voices of Our City Choir. Steph was named the 2020 Woman of the Year by San Diego Assemblymember Todd Gloria and is a gifted musician with a heart of gold. \nIn this illuminating program you will learn more about how Steph sees the challenges and lessons from those living on the streets\, as well as some success stories (over 60 people are now in reliable housing and rebuilding their lives with dignity and a sense of home again.) Plus\, you will glean what it was like to win the Golden Buzzer this spring and some behind the scenes stories from the AGT experience. \nDon’t miss this special program\, filled with hope and heart–it’ll change the way you look at homelessness.
