Welcome to another issue of our weekly bulletin! Find out who our upcoming speakers are and what we covered during the last weekly meeting.
"Asylees Dentention Release & Reuniting with Families,”Kate Good, Parish Resource Center -Zoom Mtg
Since 2014, Kate Good has served as Executive Director of the Parish Resource Center in Lancaster, PA. Prior to her role at the PRC, Kate specialized in brand development and marketing, serving on an executive team that put three books on the New York Times bestseller list. She worked closely with a number of national nonprofits including Mayo Clinic, the Avon Foundation, and the American Diabetes Association. Kate also worked as a creative, marketing, and content strategist with several major publishers.
Every year our Club funds projects that improve the lives of people both locally and globally. We raise and give away about $30,000 annually to:
Provide Summer Youth Experiences for Lancaster students
Make Presidential Grants to local nonprofits like UDS
Equip medical and dental clinics and schools in Honduras
Wipe out polio worldwide
In past years the Wheels and Wings Festival and the Tip-Off Tourney generated the funds for these projects. They’re not happening in 2020. Let’s make sure the good our Club does for Lancaster doesn’t take a year off too.
During the month of October, we ask you to make a special gift to the Rotary Club of Lancaster Foundation. If your situation permits, please consider a donation of at least $105 (our Club’s age). You could give the $406 you’ve saved on weekly lunches since March or whatever amount you would have contributed to Wheels and Wings and the Basketball Extravaganza this year. Our goal is $20,000.
Click here to make a gift online and select “RCL Foundation General Donation” as your Reason for Donation. You can also mail a check to Rotary Club of Lancaster Foundation, PO Box 1387, Lancaster, PA 17604.
President Ben will announce our grand total at our Zoom meeting on November 4th. Let’s give Lancaster something that everyone can celebrate and is beneficial to all.
