On May 30, 2026, Rotaplast International, Inc. held a Gala at the Basque Cultural Center in South San Francisco to highlight its mission to help children and families worldwide with cleft lip and/or palate, burn scarring, and other deformities; to fundraise for future medical missions; and this year, to celebrate Dr. Angelo Capozzi. Dr. Capozzi was a member of the Rotary Club of San Francisco for 42 years from 1971 to 2013. He left our Club to be closer to his home and joined the Rotary Club of Tiburon-Belvedere where he has been since 2014.
In 1991, Dr. Capozzi and Peter Lagarias who was then President-Elect of our Club organized an international service project with the Rotary Clubs of La Serena-Oriente and Los Andes. Members of our Club and their spouses on the first mission in January 1993 were: Dr. Angelo and Louise Capozzi; Kay Clarke; Peter and Elaine Lagarias and Kelly Maurer; Charles and Sandra Massen; Jim and Jo Patrick; and Rosey Wong. The service mission brought a team of medical and Rotarian volunteers to northern Chile to operate on children with cleft lips and palates. In addition to the multi-disciplinary medical team, non-medical Rotarian volunteers (from both Chile and the United States of America) facilitated the mission as translators, ward coordinators, logistics providers, quartermasters, and more.
