On a bright, Election Day morning, the Breakfast Crew gathered at Coach’s. After a reminder to get out there and vote, announcements were shared.

 

Jim Wagner gave an update on the November 14 party. Expect calls, emails, evites, and any other form of invitation (there are rumors of carrier pigeons being enlisted). Please let him know if you are coming and the number of guests you are bringing so that they can have the correct head count for the caterer. Thank you Jim for welcoming everyone into your home!

 

Ray Minich presented the latest Profit & Loss statement from the car show. Net fundraising was over $18,000. There are some ideas for the next year and a sense that the event could easily exceed $20,000, but there also needs to be a focus on ensuring the event runs smoothly. Stay tuned for a next meeting date.

 

Gail Linenberg spread the good news that Pete Williams has been officially transferred to our Doylestown Club. Yay!

 

Bill Shoffler took the lead at this morning’s conversation about the Rotary Foundation to:

1) create awareness of the Rotary Foundation,

2) encourage giving (you’ll hear from the committee directly!), and

3) boost creativity in thinking about projects.

 

November is Rotary Foundation Awareness Month. Your call to action?

 

Whether you are giving to the Annual Fund, Endowment Fund, or PolioPlus Fund, your giving will have an impact when it comes to changing the world. Even more, you can take pride in investing your funds to support future projects initiated by the Doylestown Club.

 

While the Doylestown Club has already reached out and changed lives around the world, there is plenty of space to think creatively and identify new projects to launch. The Rotary Foundation is always looking for projects that focus on Peace and Conflict Prevention, Disease Prevention and Treatment, Water and Sanitation, Maternal and Child Health, Basic Education and Literacy, and Economic and Community Development.
