Spaghetti Supper - May 20 - WE NEED YOUR HELP!
President Elect and Spaghetti Supper Chair Beth Blaisdell has set a goal of raising $60,000 with this year's May 20 event. It takes all of us working together to meet or exceed that goal! How can you help?
- Other people's money (i.e. solicit donors) - Ask business associates, your employer or friends to sponsor the event. Visit our Spaghetti Supper page to download the sponsor letter and invoice.
- Foundations - Do you serve on the board of a foundation? Stephen Horlander is submitting grant proposals on behalf of South Tyler Rotary Foundation. Let Stephen or Beth know if you serve on one of these foundations.
- Personal donation - We encourage all members to make a personal donation to the Spaghetti Supper. Beth's challenge is for each member to donate a minimum of $100. You can bring checks to our meetings or we are set up with a square device for credit cards. We hope to have a Venmo option in the very near future.
