Civic Thursday: Dr. Richard Godfrey

Join us for a special Civic Thursday event featuring Dr. Richard Godfrey. Dr. Richard Godfrey is a retired surgical oncologist and Rotary member from California, dedicated to preventing cervical cancer in underserved areas. Through Rotary initiatives, he has introduced advanced genetic screening tools in regions like Kenya, where cervical cancer poses a significant health risk, particularly to women with HIV. Dr. Godfrey’s work emphasizes accessible screening, education, and local provider training, aiming to reduce cervical cancer rates worldwide by building sustainable healthcare solutions in low-resource settings.

Convenient parking is available for a flat rate of $5 at 1717 Webster St—simply inform the attendant you are with Oakland Rotary. Lunch can be purchased onsite for $20 (cash/credit). The event is open to the public, media, and guests, and prior registration is highly recommended. For any inquiries, please contact [email protected].
