January Member Spotlight is Allison Batlin! Meet Allison: Twenty years ago, while seeking funding for a non-profit in the South Pacific, I came and spoke to South Austin Rotary Club. It was a different club then, meeting at Green Pastures, with a 60plus membership. Women were still new to Rotary.
Patty and her husband, Jim, have two daughters and three young grandchildren who live in California and Kansas City, which keeps them traveling often! Patty was a PTA mom who became very involved at several levels and eventually went to work for a non-profit associated with the school and the police to help keep children safe. Later she became a founding member of her Rotary club in California.

Far from the vaccination front lines, the fight to end the disease begins in everyday spaces, from a neighborhood pub to a commuter train to a tulip field. At the center of it all, no surprise, are enterprising Rotary members just like you
