Shoes Caravan - Rotary Shoes for Orphan Souls - CARAVAN SCHEDULE - District 6040 - our 21st year
April 23, 2022
To All Shoes Cheerleaders in Rotary District 6040 Rotary Clubs –
A good Saturday morning to you. I hope this finds each of you safe and healthy, ready to enjoy a great weekend. Allow me to possibly make up for some lost communication time.
I guess over 21 years, I finally created an email distribution list that is TOO BIG. Though I have sent communications to you on January 21, and on April 8, I am coming to learn that perhaps many of you have not received those communications which have become a part of the rhythm of Shoes Season in our District 6040 Rotary Clubs.
Please accept my apology. I believe I have rectified that communications situation for now, and for the future.
I am looking forward to our 21st year together, and I am looking forward to another year when all our Rotary Clubs participate in this meaningful service project.
We need your help! As you know, the situation for Ukrainian refugees is dire. 350,000 refugees have made their way to the tiny neighboring country of Moldova, where a per capital annual income of just $4,547 means that Moldovans have only a limited capacity to assist their new guests. Seeing this need, the Parkville Rotary Club is partnering with the Chisinau, Moldova Rotary Club on a fundraiser to assist Ukrainian refugees. Contributions collected here in the U.S. will be used by the Chisinau Rotary to buy food, supplies, and other necessities for the refugees. Donations are being accepted through PayPal. You can pay with a credit card, debit card, or through a PayPal account. Please use this link-- https://www.paypal.com/donate/... Donations can also be made by check, payable to Parkville Rotary Club, and mailed to PO Box 12064, Parkville, MO 64152.
Rotarians & Town and Country Garden club members worked fast on Saturday to spruce up the garden and the pavilion.
We need your help!
