Quiet Valor

What does courage look like when no one is watching? In this inspiring presentation, author Larry Nouvel shares true stories from Quiet Valor: Unsung Architects of the American Promise—a collection honoring everyday Americans who changed lives not with fame or force, but with quiet acts of principle, care, and resilience.

Larry introduces a Rotary-aligned initiative that empowers clubs to recognize similar unsung heroes in their own communities—especially young people—by connecting recognition with charitable giving.

This presentation blends storytelling, civic values, and practical service, perfectly echoing Rotary’s motto: Service Above Self.
