  • Citizen of the Year – Susan Page

    Address: Stirling Dickinson #28


    Every year, the Midday Rotary Club of San Miguel de Allende honors an outstanding local resident as our Citizen of the Year. The criteria for this award mirror the fundamental tenet of Rotary clubs around the world, which is service above self.

    On February 25th, we are most excited to recognize Susan Page as our 2019 Citizen of the Year.

    Perhaps no individual has started more successful NGOs doing good for the community of San Miguel than Susan Page. Recognized around the world for having published six best selling books on marriage and relationships, Susan and her husband, Mayer Shacter, came to San Miguel about eighteen years ago. With a successful writing background, Susan turned her attention from writing to organizing. Blessed with outstanding organizational skills, Susan set about making San Miguel de Allende a better place for everyone but with a focus on women. A few years ago, Susan assisted by other women, organized 100 Women Who Care, a quarterly meeting with a simple format to raise money for small NGOs and Groups doing good for the community. The Women’s Brain Exchange is another Susan Page-organized event. Once a month, women meet with women to network, brainstorm, and support each other.

    Perhaps Susan’s biggest contribution to the community just wrapped up this past week.

    The San Miguel Writers Conference had humble beginnings 15 years ago. Susan Page set it up for the love of reading and to support many local writers. Now with a large staff and volunteers, it’s one of the premier Literary Conferences in North America. Attracting some 3000 participants from Canada, the U.S. and many parts of Mexico, first-rate teaching professionals, and internationally known tri-cultural authors, the San Miguel Writers’ Conference gives local writers access to top international writers and industry insiders. This year’s event included 13 main stage events with over 70 workshops and panels.

    Please join us in celebrating with Susan on Tuesday, February 25th at a special Rotary Meeting starting at 9:30AM. We’re located at Los Arcos at #28 Stirling Dickinson. Rotary is where neighbors, friends and problem-solvers share ideas, join leaders and take action to create lasting change.
