Since 1993, Toastmasters has championed public speaking and new approaches to communication and collaboration while working with Toastmasters International to remove barriers to participation in member meetings. Several of our members have become leaders as Area Directors and above. There is no doubt that challenges will continue to face us. I encourage you seek out opportunities to improve your own speaking and communication skills in this unique virtual environment. I look forward to continue being part of your Toastmasters journey!

Sincerely,

The Toastmasters Mission
A statement of shared values

Every Toastmasters club shares the same mission, clearly defined in the following mission statement:

We provide a supportive and positive learning experience in which members are empowered to develop communication and leadership skills, resulting in greater self-confidence and personal growth.

Through this mission, each Toastmaster gains a clear understanding of the club's purpose, and the organization as a whole benefits from a shared set of values and goals.
