Meeting Recap
6/19/2024
Jackier Kohlhepp, Generational Communication Expert
Today we heard from Jackie Kohlhepp, Co-Founder + CEO of The Rez Rev. The discussion was focused on the various generations in the US, unique differences, and today’s workforce. There are five unique generations but today she discussed how to engage Gen Z. By the end of this year, Gen Z is projected to overtake Baby Boomers as the largest demographic segment in the US labor force for the first time. This is driven by aging Boomers retiring and more Gen Zers entering the workforce.
Remote work, expectations of companies, and life experiences like the pandemic all affect the perspectives of Gen Z. It’s a changing world and workforce today! Jackie’s team is helping students and companies make the transition creating the best outcomes for all. Thank You Jackie for a great presentation!

Volunteering at Camp Happy Days
May 12, 2024
Camp Happy Days (their mission is to work with children that have or have had childhood cancer) has a partner relationship with MUSC Childrens Hospital’s oncology department. MUSC brings back former patients in varied intervals for testing, chemo and other work. They are at the clinic all day, so CHD has worked with them to provide snacks and activity bags to help keep them occupied and fed throughout the day. Our Rotary Club (YOUR $) provided them with a $1000 grant which in turn allowed them to purchase the materials for the snacks and activity bags. Rotarians from the Rotary Club of Daniel Island then helped to pack the bags. Our support will provide 144 patients with snacks and activities which will meet the program’s needs over the next 6 months.
Community Service

Members of our Club are busy this summer working on two homes in the Cainhoy area, a mobile home in need of significant repairs just to remain inhabitable and a second home in need of A/C work in this hot weather. Thanks to Dr. Bill and the entire team, changing lives through your labors; “service above self” is alive and well!
Chip Law, Incoming President Visits MUSC Pediatrics
June 21, 2024
Incoming President Chip Law met with medical staff and Camp Happy Days Program team to deliver snacks and activity bags for children receiving day-log treatment and evaluation. But Chip says the real star of the show is Cher, who has devoted many dog years to helping children in need. RCDI donated the funds for the activity bags, while many DI Rotarians participated in their preparation.
