When Clara Montanez was a student, she never heard the word mentoring. 
The idea of having a role model help you pursue your ambitions was unfamiliar to her.
"You basically chose your career based on personal interest
 and hoped you could find a job," says Montanez,
 senior director of investment for Oppenheimer & Co., Inc.
 "I went the route of getting married and having children first,
 and started my career later in life. 
I had no model for how to do that."
That changed for Montanez the day a friend invited her to join Rotary.
"Frankly, I was dragged into Rotary. 
I didn't see a connection at first," says Montanez,
 who's been a member of the Rotary Club of Washington, D.C., since 2003.
 "But then I met several women, including Doris Margolis,
 who took me under her wing and started mentoring me
 on how to get more involved.
 I began seeing the value in having someone I could count on as a mentor, 
and I have become more of a leader in our club,
 in my community, and at work."
Rotary's mentoring opportunities motivated Montanez, 
Rotary's alternate representative to the Organization of American States,
 to help organize an event for International Women's Day, 8 March.
 The event, to be held at the World Bank Group headquarters in Washington, 
will feature Deepa Willingham and Marion Bunch,
 both previously honored as Rotary Women of Action.
 Rotary International Director Jennifer Jones will moderate the event, 
which will be streamed on World Bank Live.
Montanez says Rotary has given her a platform to mentor young women
 as they balance career and family, as well as manage 
the challenge of repaying student loans. 
 the student loan debt burden weighs more heavily on women 
because of the persistent gap in pay between women and men.

Rotary Club of Perth

Welcome to our newest corporate members

Corporate Social Responsibility + High Level Networking = Rotary
The scale and nature of many of the community projects undertaken by the Rotary Club of Perth - in WA and overseas - provides a natural synergy for Rotary and corporate members.
Progressive businesses recognise that community engagement is fundamental to developing links with stakeholders and widening the experience of management. The tricky part is aligning the management team with projects that are worthy of their skills and where, with the limited time available, they may make a real difference.
With that in mind, the Rotary Club of Perth is looking to foster greater links with WA business by developing corporate membership to satisfy this need. 
The benefits of Corporate Membership include:
·         Wider community engagement
·         Corporate social responsibility projects for senior managers
·         Flexible participation – nominated member may change as business demands
·         Networking – attendance at Rotary meetings, social events and service project team meetings
·         Opportunity to visit other Rotary clubs worldwide when travelling and develop international networks of business leaders in partner countries
