Operation Santa Claus: A Note from Gary Moriello

Hello Rotary colleagues. Tomorrow (Tuesday, November 27th) is our last meeting before this Friday's deadline for turning in all Operation Santa Claus gifts. Please bring them with you to the meeting and I will bring them home with me. If by chance you will not be at the meeting, please find a way to drop off the gifts at my home by this coming weekend.

While Beverly and I have ordered books for all of the children who have not yet been sponsored, we are, of course, still accepting donations to help cover those children. OSC has never been in the RED before, and we sure hope it does not happen this year. Remember, $30 covers one child, $150 covers five children, etc.

Thank you for caring.

Gary

PS: You know we always welcome help at the two schools when we distribute the gifts, as a number of you have done over the years. This year we especially need that help at the Forrestal School, where the gift distribution is scheduled for Monday morning, 12/17/18. Please let me know if you will be joining us there. Thanks again.
