2018 Rotarians Bell Ringing

Posted by Barb Zorn on Nov 29, 2018

Rotary – Year of Inspiration

Rotary International President-elect Barry Rassin’s theme for 2018-19, Be the Inspiration, asks Rotarians to inspire change in the world and in each other. “I ask all of you to Be the Inspiration to help Rotary move from reaction to action — to take a hard look at the environmental issues that affect health and welfare around the world and do what we can to help.”

Iringa Hope

Larry introductions of Jim and Tom of the Lakeville Rotary group. Larry presented them a check and Tom presented information on the Iringa Hope Global Grant and the work in Tanzania. This is a micro loan program and is an evergreen capital program. The impact on a family is amazing - - education, nutrition, crops, etc. increasing quality of life. They thanked us for our financial contribution to this effort.

Brain Power in a Backpack

The Burnsville Noon Rotary was proud to present a check to Brainpower in a Backpack from their fundraising efforts. As a result of a generous matching grant from an anonymous donor, the Rotary club will be able to make a larger impact with one of our community partners this year. Making a difference in the lives of the young adults in our community will be enhanced thanks to this joyful giving.

BrainPower in a Backpack is an on going volunteer project of Burnsville ISD 191 Community Education and Burnsville High School. Burnsville high school students pack weekend food for elementary school students in ISD 191 whose families struggle to put enough food on the table. Because academic performance is related to nutrition, their goal is to improve the student learning experience for children with the greatest need in throughout District 191.

During 2018-2019, BrainPower will provide more than 700 students with a bag of food each week - enough for at least four meals and two snacks.
