Pictured is Sarah Laughton, former St. Catharines Rotary Exchange student (1988) to Columbia, Ambassadorial Scholar to London School of Economics.
She has worked for the UN World Food Program (WFP) for over 20 years (winner of the Nobel Peace prize 2020) and will be featured in the Rotary magazine's December issue in the new column "Where Are They Now".
Until recently, Sarah has worked out of WFP head office in Rome Italy with her husband and two daughters. She is now stationed in Peru as an overall country director for the organization there.
In our mind, this is truly a humanitarian life story in which Rotary lit the spark in starting. The Rotary Club of St. Catharine's investment in one youth and look what happened.
