Rotary Statement on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion:
As a global network that strives to build a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change, Rotary values diversity and celebrates the contributions of people of all backgrounds, regardless of their age, ethnicity, race, color, abilities, religion, socioeconomic status, culture, sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Rotary will cultivate a DIVERSE, EQUITABLE, AND INCLUSIVE CULTURE in which people from underrepresented groups have greater opportunity to participate as members and leaders.
A top priority for Rotary is growing and diversifying our membership to make sure we reflect the communities we serve.
We're creating an organization that is more open and inclusive, fair to all, builds goodwill, and benefits our communities. We want people with differing perspectives and ideas who will help Rotary take action to create lasting change in communities around the world.
Through Rotary, you'll find unique opportunities to get involved. Everyone is welcome in Rotary.

Robert (Bob) Rausch
District 5520 Governor
2021 – 2022
I became a Rotarian in the Rotary Club of Albuquerque Del Norte in 2005. My first position was Red Badge chair where I worked with Red Badge inductees, introducing them to all things Rotary (and learning a lot myself). Later, I became the Rotary International Committee chair for two years, and then after a year off, I was elected club president for the 2016-2017 Rotary year.
I was born in Columbus, Ohio and I lived in Zanesville and Dayton before moving to Philadelphia while in junior high. I went back to Ohio in 1969 to attend Miami University on an Air Force scholarship, graduating in 1973. I went into the Air Force shortly thereafter.
My first assignment was undergraduate pilot training in Lubbock, TX. After that, I primarily flew F-4s, 0-2s, and F-111s while serving in the Philippines, England, Germany, and all over the US. I met my bride, Sandy, an Air Force nurse, while stationed in Sumter, SC and we married in 1980. I retired after 20 years of active service while stationed at Clovis NM in 1993 and moved to Albuquerque for my next career, financial advising.
I spent the next 25 years helping my clients, mostly active-duty military families, on their road to financial independence. In 2005 I was promoted to District Advisor for the state of NM and held that position for 10 years before retiring in 2018. I continue in aviation as a certified flight instructor.
I am married to USAF Col (Ret.) Sandy Rausch and have three sons and a grandson. I enjoy flying, traveling, golf and fly fishing.District Executive Secretary _- Donette Wagner Contact Information: secretary5520@gmail.com
