President’s MESSAGEP.E.O.—A CommitmentThe Gregorian calendar is recognized around theworld. Accordingly, January is the month thatheralds the beginning of a new year and is typicallyfilled with resolutions, new objectives and newgoals for the coming year. For P.E.O., March is themonth that signals the period of new beginningsand transition in all local P.E.O. chapters. Marchis the time to assess the goals we set for theprevious year, review the progress made towardthose goals, measure our effectiveness and thendevelop objectives for the coming year. We havelearned that if we don’t know where we are going,any road will take us there. But we have also learnedthat for our chapters and thus our sisterhood tocontinue to thrive, we must set our objectives sothat we wisely invest our time, energy and talents.Chapters that set goals are successful!Since Pope Gregory XIII introduced his calendarin 1582, our world has changed dramatically and itcontinues to change daily. The same is true in P.E.O.It may seem that everything remains the same, butif you consider the growth and accomplishments wehave achieved it is evident that our objects and aimsfor general improvement continue to be met. P.E.O. haschanged with the times; had we not done so, we wouldnot have survived for almost a century and a half.But change just for change’s sake is a fundamentallyflawed concept. The old and familiar phrase “don’tthrow the baby out with the bath water,” reminds usto keep those fundamentals that helped P.E.O. thrive duringits 144-year history and constructively deal with thechanges yet to come. Without positive change thereis no growth, no progress, no general improvement.P.E.O. continues to be a vital, contributing organizationbecause our members are willing to go beyond thestatus quo to reach for new goals and objectives.What did the founding members inherently buildinto the foundation of P.E.O. that has so resolutelywithstood the test of time and the associated culturaland technological changes? Are those fundamentalsstill in place and will theybe sufficient to propel usto our sesquicentennialanniversary and beyond?To continue our sisterhoodas a constructive forcein society, we must save theideals and principles uponwhich it was formed:Friendship in P.E.O.has a distinctive qualityand depth. Retain thefriendships and thechapter atmospherein which friendshipswill grow.Our projects are outward reflections of our purpose.They give us a sense of accomplishment and are aworld-wide influence.From the seven founding members in 1869, todaywe have more than 240,000 diverse, active participantswho have made our sisterhood strong and effective.The quality of our membership is essential.To ignore our past is to lose our identity. We have adefined purpose of proven significance; we have a soundstructure and a strong heritage. And fundamentally, we havea dedicated membership. Our past serves as a model forour future and the foundation for our next 100 years.If P.E.O. is to grow through another century, it needs thecontinued dedication of each member. If we accept thechallenge and invest in the future, our sisterhood willcontinue to be a positive influence on the lives of womenaround the world.Remember... U.R.P.E.O.,Susan Reese Sellers,President, International ChapterGrateful appreciation is expressed to each P.E.O.who has completed her office and/or committeeresponsibilities and congratulations to those whohave accepted leadership positions for the comingyear. For those elected delegates to upcomingconventions, participate with interest andenthusiasm and value the importance of yourrole and responsibility of investing in the futureof our sisterhood.THE P.E.O.
