Routine event notices and cheque presentations rarely attract coverage. To be heard, we must move from internal announcements to public-interest storytelling. Instead of saying \u201cRotary is holding an event,\u201d ask: What problems&nbsp;are we solving? Who&nbsp;isaffected? What human change are we making?
