My name is Katie, and in 2012 I served as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar studying Social Entrepreneurship at the University of London. Before my year as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar, I completed a solo row across the Atlantic Ocean, setting a new record as the youngest solo ocean rower. Along the way I raised $150,000 for safe drinking water projects. I have teamed up with Mark Bowles, an accomplished author and university professor, and we have finished a book called "Just Keep Rowing: Lessons from the Atlantic by the Youngest Person to Ever Row Across It Alone." It is a self-empowerment book as well as opportunity to raise awareness about the global water crisis. I was wondering if you would be interested in having me speak at one of your Rotary Club meetings with my co-author.
