Franhas served The Rotary Foundation as trustee and Rotary International as Director, aid to the president, district governor and advisor to Rotary’s 1996 International Convention Committee in Calgary, Canada. He has acted as Rotary’s national advocacy advisor for polio in Mexico and as a member of one of Rotary’s future planning committees. He is also the founder of Rotarismo en Mexico, Rotary's national magazine in Mexico. Devlyn has also been a tireless promoter of Rotary's developed-to-developing country assistance program, World Community Service. He created the largest used eyeglass bank in Mexico which today serves as a model for cooperative donation-in-kind efforts between Rotary clubs located in different countries.
Remember we will not have a meeting on Tuesday that week and the club will pay $20 towards the cost of the lunch. Sign up today.
