GLSS Food Distribution - May 2021
On Friday May 21st, Steve Upton and Bill Reilly volunteered at GLSS to help distribute brown grocery bags full of non-perishable groceries.  The food is provided by the Boston Food Bank, and is made available to income qualifying senior citizens of Lynn.  It took about two hours, to serve well over 100 seniors.  Every third Friday a couple or three volunteers are needed to assure that the seniors are provided with the food.  The exception to the dates is that the next distribution is on June 11, 2021, not the 18th.
 
If you would like to volunteer, please contact Nick, in advance of the date,  at:  nanander@glss.net

I am honored to begin my year as the President of the Rotary Club of Lynn, MA. I have been a Rotarian for 2 years now and the opportunity to give back to my community through service has been so rewarding. I am constantly asked what is the Rotary Club and my quick answer to that is we are an international organization who’s main focus is service through volunteer work and participation in local and international efforts. On a more specific note we volunteer in local organizations such as My Brothers Table, the Mobile Food Bank, Catholic Charities, Lynn Shelter Association, etc. We give out annual scholarships to high school seniors and recognize 8th grade students who have overcome obstacles in life and so much more. I have many ideas for what we will accomplish this year and I am looking forward to a fun Rotary year. If you would like to become more involved in the city of Lynn you might want to consider joining us.
