Ethiopian fundraiser.

Maureen Fritz-Roberts District 5020 Membership Chair Sends us this information on her districts fund raiser for Ethiopia. Looking for a good excuse to spend a weekend on Vancouver Island?? Look no further ... On July 28 you will be able to enjoy outdoor dining on the waterfront in the beautiful Comox Valley with?live music by Jazz Noir. ? There will also be information about Rotary Ethiopian projects and the opportunity to bid on few auction items.? Because the focus of the evening is fundraising, it is not priced cheaply.? The cost will be $100 per person and all proceeds will go to the Ethiopian projects (money will go through the Comox Rotary club). Guest speaker will be Ezra Teshome, who many people know from his talks at DLTA and past conferences,? Ezra was acclaimed as one of the nine "health heros of the world" by Time magazine a couple of years ago in recognition of the work he has spearheaded in Ethiopia, including polio immunization, clean water, housing and micro-lending.? (You can 'Google' his name for more information)? Ezra will be part of the team producing the Africa-themed food for the evening. This is going to be a spectacular evening and a chance to put the "fun" back in "fun"draising.? Attendance will be limited.? If you are interested please contact Mo at mofritzroberts@shaw.ca? ?I can tell you all about the best places to stay - we have a brand new boutique hotel.
