Social distancing is the only way to stop the coronavirus— a health threat to most of the Rotary demographic.
Members of our Rotary E-Club of Wall Street are available to assist any Rotarians interested in switching their next gathering to Zoom. Please comment if you would like some support.
Anyone in a position of power or authority, instead of downplaying the dangers of the coronavirus, should ask people to stay away from public places, cancel big gatherings, and restrict most forms of nonessential travel.Social distancing is the only way to stop the coronavirus— a health threat to most of the Rotary demographic.

You will be ridiculed as an extremist or an alarmist. But it is still the right thing to do. Why put your dear friends and loved ones at risk to simply show face at an event when you can actively engage remotely? Our Club is a demonstrated example of how virtual meetups can work.

Hi Rotarians!,
My brother, Thomas Sconzo III, will be running the NYC Marathon this year and raising money for Education Through Music in honor of our grandpa, Edward Pinto Sr.
Please consider donating to this wonderful cause which benefits school aged children in the 5 Boroughs!!
To learn more about what Thomas is doing, please read his words below or follow the link!
“I remember my first time picking up an instrument like it was yesterday. I don't know who was more excited, myself or my grandfather. I got to start learning to play an instrument before they even offered it to us at school and my grandfather got to share with me something he loved.
For those of you who didn't know him, my grandfather was a music teacher and very passionate about it. Even after retiring he continued to play in local community bands and give lessons. The amount of lives he impacted is innumerable. Season after season, dozens of his former students would return to play with him in the various bands he was a part of.
While he is no longer with us, his influence can still be felt through his students, the bands he played with, and through myself. It is for this reason I will remember him by supporting Education Through Music.
Education Through Music partners with under-resourced schools to provide music as a core subject for all students, and utilizes music education as a catalyst to improve children's academic achievement, motivation for school and self-confidence.
In New York City, 55% of public schools do not have a full-time certified music teacher on staff. ETM is in its 28th year of addressing this situation -- recruiting, employing and training music teachers, placing them in schools serving predominantly low-income communities, and helping them eventually get hired, so that music education can be sustained.
Every bit helps. A couple of dollars can buy a child a recorder. $1,800 makes this program possible for 10 kids for the entire school year. Learn more at ETMonline.org.
I hope you will help me remember Edward B. Pinto and support my run for ETM.”
