Rotarians, mark your calendars for an unforgettable event! The DG Rachele Foundation 2024 gathering is fast approaching, and we are thrilled to announce that Rotary International Director, Wyn Spiller (2025-2027), will be a special guest. Her visit promises to bring incredible insight, inspiration, and the rare opportunity to connect with one of Rotary’s most esteemed leaders.
Wyn Spiller is a powerhouse in the Rotary community. A member of the Rotary Club of Grass Valley, CA, she has dedicated her life to Rotary since joining in 1994. Her passion and commitment to service are evident through the countless leadership roles she has held across Rotary International (RI), including her time as District 5190 Governor in 2008-2009. Wyn’s influence stretches far beyond her home district, having served as a Zone Endowment/Major Gifts Adviser, Rotary Foundation Coordinator, and a key player in the first-ever hybrid Council on Legislation as its trainer. Her work continues to shape the future of Rotary’s programs and its reach worldwide.
Wyn and her husband, Steve, are shining examples of Rotary’s dedication to global humanitarian work. Whether through their financial support as Major Donors, their life-changing experiences on National Immunization Days in India, or their hands-on involvement in projects across Uganda and Mexico, they embody the spirit of service that makes Rotary a force for good in the world. With a special interest in peace-building programs, polio eradication, and the Rotary Peace Centers, Wyn has dedicated herself to making the world a better place — one service project at a time.
For those of you who have yet to meet her, Wyn’s engaging personality and deep knowledge of Rotary will inspire you to think bigger about the impact we can have through our own clubs and districts. As a longtime advocate for Rotary’s leadership and youth programs, Wyn has been instrumental in the success of Rotary Leadership Institutes and Youth Exchanges, programs that help shape tomorrow’s leaders. Her dedication to fostering new talent and developing future leaders is not just commendable — it is contagious.
This is a unique chance to hear from someone who has lived Rotary at every level. Her journey, from supporting Visioning programs in District 5190 to working with the Rotary Foundation, shows her immense passion for making Rotary a driving force in global change. Wyn’s visit to the DG Rachele Foundation 2024 event offers a rare window into the workings of Rotary at its highest levels, and her ability to connect with fellow Rotarians will leave you inspired and energized to do more in your own communities.
What makes Wyn’s visit even more special is her role as incoming Rotary International Director, representing the 30 districts of the Big West from 2025-2027. This gathering is your opportunity to engage with a leader poised to help shape Rotary’s future across the globe. Whether you’re new to Rotary or a long-time member, the chance to learn from Wyn Spiller is not to be missed.
We are excited to welcome Wyn to this incredible event, and we know she will leave an indelible mark on every Rotarian in attendance. Be sure to spread the word to fellow Rotarians and club members. Let’s make this event a celebration of Rotary’s ongoing mission to create lasting change — in our communities and around the world!
