Special Fitness Project & Rotary
How can Rotary Clubs Contribute?
Rotarians can alert parents, teachers and others who care for millions of adults and children with disabilities that this resource exists. Rotarians can give them the DVD or show them other ways to get them. Rotarians, Rotoractors and Interactors may volunteer to help individuals and groups start exercising with the DVD and help them sustain exercise programs for years to improve their physical and mental health
People with disabilities are scattered across America in cities, towns and rural settings in all kinds of residential situations. The spirit that Rotary uses to spread Polio Immunization makes us the ideal organization to promote this new resource to all who can benefit from it.
OTHER WAYS ROTARIANS CAN USE THE DVD INCLUDE:
Organizing training programs for leaders in your community who deal with people with disabilities; volunteering to personally lead workouts with the DVD; joining our Team of Professional Advisors who answer questions from users; contribute to our website; help to create social networks to support the users, additional workouts on DVD or other media that will give our users greater variety of workouts.
ROTORACTORS AND INTERACTORS
Can gain service opportunities by leading SFP workouts at schools and other locations. They get to know people whom they would not otherwise meet. Some will gain interest in careers in medicine, education or other fields that help people with disabilities. Some will create new forms of Social Integration for people with disabilities or find new ways to support their parents and caregivers. They will achieve as much as they can imagine.
