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,
Rotary International
Director Jennifer Jones will moderate the event,
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
