This Week at Rotary September 1, 2020 - Meeting is Virtual
Presiding Officer: Eric Drumheller
Secretary: Morrie Enders
Virtual Meeting Host: Ryan Dobesh
Virtual Greeter: Josh Overocker
Program Host: Randy Bretz
Speaker: Mariette Fourmeaux

Mariette Fourmeaux
Rotary Peace Fellow from CA
 
Mariette Fourmeaux has produced TEDx events at the Donovan Correctional Center in San Diego, California. She’s participated in a special Rotary program at the Rotary Peace Center in Thailand to develop her vision to help people discover their inner brilliance. And, she’s founder and visionary of an organization called “Brilliance Inside,” seeking to help prisoners and others to use their brilliance to create a greater (and safer) society.
 
Mariette Fourmeaux left a career as a high-level international leader of Hewlett Packard to dedicate herself to help the residents of the prison in San Diego by involving them in the production of a TEDx event. I met her at a TEDx gathering in New York and she subsequently came to Nebraska to help with and observe a TEDx event at the York Correctional Center for Women. I celebrated with her when she was invited to the very selective Rotary Peace Center program in Thailand. We regularly connect to discuss her Brilliance Inside undertaking, the work she continues to do at Donovan Correctional, and her work as a Rotary Peace Fellow.
 
Mariette will be sharing more details about Rotary International’s efforts to promote peace, she’ll talk a bit about what it’s like to work with residents of a correctional facility and she’ll inspire you with her focus on helping us all discover the brilliance we have inside.
