How would you like to fulfill Rotary’s mission while having a positive impact on the life of an international or Rotaract university student in the Lincoln area? Following the International Student Event (Picnic) in September, we saw a huge demand for mentorship with Rotarians. We’re looking for Rotarians that are interested in meeting with a student at least 1X per month during the school year with a focus on providing guidance & coaching on career and helping each student build a successful future. Outside of that, where you take each mentorship will depend on individual goals and aspirations and how you mutually decide to work together. We often hear that mentors get just as much out of a mentoring relationship as the mentee. I’m sure all of us can recount someone that has helped us along the way as we navigated our careers & life. Now it’s your turn - hop on board for this valuable experience & help Rotary prepare our future generation! The expected start date is October 2020 – more information to come.

Covid-19 Impact on Food Insecurity in Southeast Nebraska and Raising the Response to Hunger
Mar 09, 2021
Michaella Kumke is the Community Engagement Director of the Food Bank of Lincoln. As a student of UNL’s College of Journalism and Mass Communications (CoJMC), she worked as an intern at NET. That role turned into a full-time job following graduation. It fueled her passion for nonprofit work and an enduring appreciation for public broadcasting. Ms. Kumke has nearly 20 years of nonprofit experience that includes educational broadcasting, health care, early childhood development, and human services. She is a proud member of the Food Bank’s leadership team and co-leads the organization’s Raising Our Response to hunger capital campaign, a $10 million project focused on finding hunger solutions. When she’s not collaborating to end hunger, Ms. Kumke is an active community volunteer. Most recently, she concluded her term as Habitat for Humanity of Lincoln’s Board Chair and currently serves on the Lincoln Journal Star's Inspire Lincoln Advisory Committee, LPS Community Communications Advisory Committee and volunteers as a UNL CoJMC student mentor. Originally from Hastings, Nebraska, Ms. Kumke grew up in a modest home with her loving parents and 11—yes, ELEVEN!—siblings. In her free time, Ms. Kumke enjoys spending time on her bike or in her running shoes enjoying Lincoln’s incredible recreational trails system. Otherwise, you’ll find her hunkered down at home with her spouse Ari, their dog Frankie, an adorable Heinz 57 mix of a mutt, and an overdue library book. (With gratitude and apologies to Lincoln City Libraries.) |
