Did you watch the broadcast last Saturday for FLIGHT 2021? I hope you did! I hope you bought a butterfly or a dragonfly or a silent auction package or even donated! Thank you so much - obviously, we got a LOT of support! We will have our final numbers very soon so I'll share those as soon as I can! I will reveal, however, that our club has SO many thank yous to give for all of the work and the support...
This week, Massimo Cassinelli from the Rotary Club of Bisceglie in Italy and Donna Dell'Olio will do the first part of our program, talking about our Global Grant partnership and then Donna will present some great information to us for the 2nd half!
Today's Random Awesome Deed suggestion is to thank everyone for everything that is thankworthy this next week. A simple thank you is sometimes what is needed most and it costs nothing but rewards deeply.
Now let's go forth, be great stewards of Rotary and Catalysts of Caring in our Community!
Please be well, be safe, and be kind. There are a lot of people needing just that.
The presentation will be about the ballot issue - what is being asked of voters, some history on what the organization has accomplished over the past 24 years and some of the projects that will get done if this issue passes.

As you're doing your shopping online, did you know that you can support our Rotary Club with every Amazon purchase? Here’s how:
Go to smile.amazon.com (not amazon.com). Amazon Smile is the same company, same account, same password, but the Amazon Smile program gives one half of one percent of every purchase to charity. No, it’s not a lot, but it’s also not nuthin’ (to be exact: about $150 for the Club so far). So again, go to smile.amazon.com
Sign into your Amazon account as you normally would
On the very top left of the page, next to the AmazonSmile logo, are three horizontal bars. Click there for the drop-down menu.
Scroll ALL the way down to “Your AmazonSmile”; it should be the last option right before “Sign Out”; Click on “Your AmazonSmile”
On the right side of the page, click on the “change charity” box under Your current charity (Note: If you are currently supporting another charity, that’s awesome! These instructions are for those who are not doing so. Also, if you have not previously selected a charity, your default option will be St. Judge Children’s Research Hospital.)
Type in Community Service Fund of the Rotary Club of Colorado Springs; click Select
That’s it. You’re all set. Just remember to go to Smile.Amazon.com when you shop from now on.
