The Rotary Reel: PHOTOS OF THE WEEK:
Meeting & Field Trip Photos
Our featured speaker, Cameron Mofid, shared his remarkable journey of overcoming severe OCD and ultimately visiting all 195 countries. He highlighted powerful experiences in Nigeria, where meeting an orphan led to his involvement in building an orphanage; Afghanistan, where a young woman inspired him with her determination to pursue an education despite discrimination; and North Korea, which he was able to visit by participating in a 10K race.
His stories were inspiring, thought-provoking, and a memorable part of the evening.
 

Cameron Mofid 

Meet Cameron:

At 25, Cameron became the youngest person to visit every country in the world, completing the journey to all 195 countries with North Korea as the final stop.

Growing up with debilitating OCD, Cameron set out on a seven-year mission as a form of real-world exposure therapy. Today, his experiences inspire audiences to build resilience, better manage their mental health, and redefine what they believe is possible.

Cameron is also the founder of Humanity Effect, a nonprofit organization that has supported more than 1,000 children in Nigeria with quality education and safe housing. His story and work have been featured in major media outlets including Forbes, CNN, CBS, FOX, NBC, and Netflix.
