Community Action is preparing for their annual Holiday Toy Drive! Last year they were able to have over 250 families “shop” for free toys, including 50 families at the Gathering Place. This year they are collecting toys/gifts for children age 0-18. Families will have the opportunity to visit their store in December and choose the toys/gifts that are the best fit for their children. Rotary 14 will be collecting toys during our December 17 meeting, which is our Holiday Party. You can access the gift idea list here. They’ve also created an Amazon wish list for anyone who would prefer that method of donation. |

All Club-Member Open House - View the Exchange Banners We have had exchange banners in storage for some time. The Open House will be the final opportunity for Club Members to view the exchange banners before they are digitized and disposed of. If a Club Member wishes to take an exchange banner (or two!) with them as a souvenir, they will be welcome to do so. Michael Eckelkamp will be hosting us at Christ Lincoln's gym so we have plenty of room to display the banners. |

The Rotary International Foundation makes a difference through grants that fund our members' work to help people who lack clean water, adequate sanitation and reliable ways to maintain good hygiene. Though RI's global grants, RI's partnership with USAID and the WASH in Schools Target Challenge, the RI Foundation addresses crucial needs and save lives.
Make a gift to World Water Day to help RI bring clean water to more people.
