We look forward to seeing you at our Thursday Lunch Meeting.

Forensics and justice for all. Justice is not a luxury; it is a basic human right.

Safety is an expectation of modern society and can only be achieved when justice is universal.

Society requires infrastructure — roads, bridges, highways — and so does the criminal justice system.

At Othram, we are building the roads and underlying infrastructure that will deliver justice for all cases, everywhere.


Members of the Rotary Club of The Woodlands are gathering professional clothing and accessories for the students of Lone Star College - Montgomery. The items may be brought to the upcoming meeting or taken directly to Lone Star College's Maverick Care Center (Building D, 2nd Floor).

If you don't have any gently used professional clothing, please consider bringing a jar or two of peanut butter for the Montgomery County Food Bank.  Also, there will be a coat/warm clothing drive in October!

 

Guests are always welcome, so bring a friend or colleague to the meeting. They may want to learn more about Rotary, and it is an excellent opportunity to meet like-minded individuals who believe in ‘Service Above Self.’
