South Austin Rotary is proud to spotlight Aldo Rios, whose passion for service began during his university years, where he held student leadership roles while balancing work and community involvement.
Through volunteer efforts, Aldo has helped distribute food to those experiencing homelessness, raised funds for charities, and assisted lower-income families with tax preparation — experiences that sparked his continued commitment to service.
Members of the Rotary Club of South Austin rolled up their sleeves at the Central Texas Food Bank, working alongside fellow volunteers to make a real difference. Together, we helped process 4,001 pounds of food, providing 3,334 meals for our community. Proud to serve and grateful to be part of the solution.
Dawn was born in St. Louis, Missouri and has lived all over the world. She attended high school in Tournai, Belgium and lived with a French speaking family. She graduated from the University of Missouri with a BS in Civil Engineering and worked for the USDA. While living in Long Beach, CA she lived the “beach life”, got her Masters in Linguistics, had four gorgeous children and planned for international development work.

If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s future. And we are all mortal. – John F. Kennedy
