Palm Southwest Mortuary

In the Rotary calendar for 2019-2020, April is Maternal and Child Health Month (which is one of Rotary’s six areas of focus). Every year, nearly 6 million children under the age of five die be-cause of malnutrition, poor health care, and inadequate sanitation. To combat this, Rotary supports programs that provide health to vulnerable mothers and children so they can live longer and grow stronger. Haiti has the highest maternal and infant mortality rate of any country in the western hemisphere. To help alleviate this problem, Rotary clubs in Haiti worked with Rotary International to provide a fully equipped medical Jeep to volunteers and mid-wives so that they could provide services to mothers and children in remote areas. Nigeria also has an unacceptable mortality rate. There, Rotary members launched a $3 million, five-year program to save lives of mothers and children during home deliveries. As part of this program, they have repaired 1,500 obstetric fistulas, a hole develops in the birth canal as a result of childbirth and often causes incontinence. The program saved lives and restored the dignity and hope to these women. Women in Chennai, India suffer from a high mortality rate from breast and cervical cancer. To combat this problem, Rotarians provided a mobile cancer screening unit and awareness trainings around Chennai. Rotarians around the world are ready willing and able to support women and children but they need your help. In a short while, President Elect Jackie will be sending our annual club pledge forms. Your donations to the Rotary Foundation will provide a profound impact on the lives of mothers and children throughout the world. I ask that you consider the impact your monthly donations will make when you fill out your pledge form for PE Jackie’s year.

The Las Vegas Rotary Club’s Mission:

Marty WaldmanSpace System Architecture

WHAT IS ROTARY?Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to cre-

ate lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and

in ourselves.

THE FOUR-WAY TEST OF THE THINGS

WE THINK, SAY OR DO

1. Is it the TRUTH?2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?3. Will it build GOODWILL and

BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all

concerned?Mr. Waldman brings over 42 years of DoD Navy and Air Force Program Management experience to SIL from his technical involvement with Cruise Missile, Space Shuttle, Titan IV, Minuteman, Peacekeeper and Eastern/Western Range Data Acquisition and Processing Systems. With a keen eye on building business relationships to benefit SIL and its partners, Mr. Waldman leverages his understanding of projected DoD/ Commercial needs in conjunction with available technology and articulates this understanding to other SIL leadership for suggested implementation. Having successfully authored and prosecuted numerous Patents, Mr. Waldman’s insight

and understanding of what’s necessary to bring a product to the commercial/military market is continually demonstrated via the fielding of these and other key technologies. Leading applications include the Vehicle Based Independent Range System, Military Grade Small Satellites, and Space Rated Battery/Power Systems. B.S. Electrical Engineering, Northeastern University, 1977
