ROMAC showcased at D9675 Rotary Conference

ROMAC shared life saving stories at the District 9675 Conference, strengthening community support to continue transforming children's lives.

ROMAC was proud to be represented at the Rotary District 9675 Conference where we hosted an exhibit and shared the life-changing work of this remarkable Rotary project.

The ROMAC display attracted strong interest throughout the conference from Rotarians and guests alike. Many took the time to stop, learn more about the children we support, and hear firsthand about the impact of providing life-saving and dignity-restoring surgery to children across the Pacific.

The exhibit provided a valuable platform to raise awareness, connect with new supporters and strengthen existing relationships within the Rotary community. Stories of children like Janewly resonated deeply, reminding attendees of the profound difference ROMAC makes — not only for the children but also for their families and communities.

We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of the conference and to share our mission. Events like this are vital in helping us continue our work and extend our reach to even more children in need.

A sincere thank you to everyone who visited the ROMAC stand, asked questions and showed their support. Together we are changing lives.
