Rotary Club of Mountainside Continues to Grow

Mountainside resident Tom Cogan was inducted a new member into the Rotary Club of Mountainside.  Tom is a representative of Flexkom, a company that provides consumers who frequent local businesses with loyalty rewards.  Tom mentioned that his brother, a retired Colonel who lives in Pennsylvania, has been a Rotarian for years and often had encouraged Tom to become a member.  As his brother has, Tom would like to work on the Rotary initiative to provide pure water to the world.  While Rotary has had this initiative for years, interestingly former President Clinton just recently made this a focus of his Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative goals.

 

Tom mentioned that each night as he is falling asleep, he runs a tally through his mind to determine whether he gave back that day more than he received.  With his participation in Rotary, Tom intends to continue his quest to achieve that goal.
