At Rotary Club of Ann Arbor Lunch on November 9th, Daniel Johnson from Empowering Services, Inc. was our speaker.
Empowering Services, Inc. works with Washtenaw County to increase the services inside and outside the jail to not only further reduce the recidivism rate, but enables exiting inmates the best potential for success.
Daniel described, how his organizations help inmates by giving rides back to their homes after they are released.
He also told us that the Jail is very cold this time of year so a big service they provide is to give the inmates undergarments.
At the end of his presentation, Scott Nelson gave Daniel, a check for $200 from our club. He said, "the money will buy a lot of undergarments."
On November 2nd, we had a competition called Foundation Follies. The moderator Mike McManus, asked question about the Rotary Foundation to the panelist, Gail Scott, Virginia Nordby, Steve Lessens and John Copeland.
