A very special thank you to Victor and El Pollo Inka Gardena for hosting our weekly Rotary Club meetings 
Since July 2025, the restaurant has served as our home as we carried out work to further our community impact. We can't thank Victor and his team enough for their hospitality and treating us like family every step of the way. Starting September 23, the club will have a new meeting location.
Margie Perscheid of the American Red Cross joined us as the special guest speaker for our September 16 meeting. Serving as a Board Member for the prominent organization, Margie urged the club to answer the call of a nation featuring a critically low blood supply. While donors are essential, the evergreen need is finding organizations to partner with, such as the Gardena-Carson Family YMCA to host blood drives and leverage their networks. Reach out to community partners, recruit donors, and support the club's upcoming blood drive on November 2!
