Director’s Address
Promote The Mission
District 44,
This month, I invite you to lean in with intention as we center our focus on one powerful charge: Promote the Mission.
Every time we speak about the value of Toastmasters, we are not just sharing information — we are extending an invitation for transformation. We are offering someone the chance to strengthen their voice, expand their confidence, and step into a version of themselves they may not even know is possible. That is the heart of our mission. And when we promote that mission, we ignite a ripple effect of growth that stretches far beyond our clubs.
Toastmasters changes lives — but only if people know what’s possible.
So I challenge each of you to SHOW UP this month with boldness and purpose. Share your story. Celebrate your club. Highlight the impact.
When we uplift our mission, we don’t just build clubs — we build people, we build leaders, and we build the future of District 44.
- We embody Integrity.
- We demonstrate Respect.
- We lead with Service.
- And we execute with Excellence.
This month, let’s amplify who we are and what we bring to the world. Together, let’s Promote the Mission — and watch the next wave of lives change because we chose to open the door.
District 44… it’s time to SHOW UP!
DTM Yolonda Jay
District 44 Director, 2025–2026
