Suzanna and her husband, Doug, visited us for our weekly meeting this Wednesday. Suzanna spoke to us about her travels in her homeland of Peru acquiring products for her store and also about some amazing products. Hint: don't miss out on the very soft and cozy Alpaca socks! Suzanna also supports a number of worthwhile organizations in Peru that improving the lives of women and children in Peru. She truly is an inspiration and we're proud to count her among our new friends.http://www.alpaca-suri.com/​

We were honored to have Bob Faherty from Cops for Kids with Cancer remind us why his organization touches our hearts each year. He and Officer Green from the Hull Police Department showed us many pictures of local recipients of the $5,000 check they have been awarded. Most are very young, deserving children who should be concentrating on childhood activities rather than doctor and hospital visits.

Our club was very happy to give Bob a check for $5,000 from our annual car show. We are looking forward to giving another check to a family next year!

A special thanks to Officer Green and the entire Hull Police Department. Without them the car show would not be possible as they volunteer their time year after year for this worthy event.

John Lidington and Colin LeStrange from Help U were our speakers this week. They run a fantastic company that is currently in New York City, Boston and Worcester, MA that assists businesses with jobs they may have while giving college students work experience as well as funds to support their college experience. In addition, they do jobs such as moving, small tasks and odd jobs to provide college students with money. Their most popular jobs include: Website Development, Marketing, Social Media Campaigns, Graphic Design, Photography/Videography, Data Entry, Event Help (bartending / serving, clean-up), Tutoring, Moving, Babysitting and Computer Assistance. Why not help a college student connect with alumni or the community by hiring them today! Contact John or Colin at: TheHelpU.com.

On June 18, 2014 we installed Jean Sullivan as our newest president! Having been a past president in both Worcester and Hingham-Hull, we know we're in good hands.

Day 2 of the Fort Revere cleanup went off with a few sore muscles and a little sprinkling of rain. We still managed to fill a large dumpster though! Thanks to Alana, Cecilia, Craig, Boyd, Fulvio, Gerry, Lowie, Norbie, Sinead, Tim and a few generous adults and children from town who came out over the course of the weekend. A special thanks to the moms and children of the Bernard and Manewell families for coming out today and filling 5 bags with the trash. Nicely done! We hope for better weather at our next fort adventure.

 

A hearty group from the Fort Revere Restoration Committee and the Nantasket-Hull Rotary Club cleaned up the brush and small bushes around the parking area in the rain. We had a number of concerned citizens that stopped by to help with the heavy work and also pick up trash at the barracks. Thank you to all for your dedication on this cold and rainy day! 

 

 

Razia with our club at the Scituate Rotary Club meeting in Scituate, MA.

Tonight we saw Razia Jan, a favorite speaker of our club. She is the principal fundraiser, mother, educator and trusted confidant  of girls and young women at her school in Afghanistan. Razia is a fervent supporter of the US military and has helped them gain the trust of people in small villages in Afghanistan.

We saw a video of the girls in their school, using the computer, playing with others and being educated, a task that previously seemed impossible for them. It was great to see the same gentleman that she showed us three years ago, who didn't want her to teach girls, talking about how wonderful it is that their daughters can read as they don't have to go to the local mullah anymore to read their mail. The girls face many perils for wanting an education in Afghanistan and it was wonderful to see them so happy. We were able to raise $1500 for her efforts which will help 5 girls be educated for a year. Razia expects to graduate her first class in 2015 and that will be a special day. She hopes to put in place extended education as the young woman most likely will remain in their village. Thank you Razia for spreading your enthusiasm and helping to make a difference in the world!

Congratulations to Nadine and Gerry! We have two new members that have already shown their strengths and will be a great asset to our club. I know I speak for everyone in our club when I say, "Welcome to the friendliest club on the South Shore (and possibly the world)! April 14, 2011 was the day we chartered our new club and we also celebrated our third anniversary this week.

Liisa spoke to us about charitable giving, how to choose a charity and what to look out for when deciding where to donate your money. She also gave us sound advice for inclusion in a pamphlet about our club. Thank you for the information!

The Nantasket-Hull Rotary Club of Hull, Massachusetts and Moon City Rotary Club of Tiruvannamalai, India were granted matching monies through Rotary International to connect doctors in the United States and India. Dr. McKinnon of Chicago taught specialized techniques to surgeons at Amrita Hospital to eliminate tumors in patients with Neurofibromatosis (NF1). The surgeries were successful and all patients are recovering for the time when they will have their final cosmetic surgeries. Thank you to everyone around the world who contributed with their hearts, energy and donations to make a difference in the lives of Jayanthi, Sil and Om.

Steve joined the Rotary Club of Terrigal, New South Wales, making breakfast at the Terrigal School Fete.

Rotarian Steve Lynch is visiting a friend in Australia and fundraising for our international project, Project Om Shanti. We are sending an American surgeon, Dr. McKinnon and his wife who is a nurse, to India to train doctors in techniques he has pioneered. There will be three initial surgeries with Dr. McKinnon and doctors at Amrita Hospital and hopefully many more deserving individuals will have surgery in the future.

 

 

 

 

Have a great week everyone and see you next week at the Paragon Grille.

Rotarian Steve Lynch exchanged banners with the Terrigal Club President, David Waterhouse, as he visited for a speaking engagement on October 3, 2013. Thank you to Terrigal Rotary Club members who donated to our international project, Project Om Shanti. We appreciate your kindness!

 

Last week we agreed that I would purchase two of Razia's children's books when I saw her this past weekend. She was so excited to see me and said she thinks of our club often! She asked for my business card and would like to make a visit the next time she's in town (next year). At first I suggested a few of our local clubs should get together and host a event for her, and then I thought, maybe we could do something through the district. She is looking for support in the form of money - $5 will buy a child a winter coat and $5 more will purchase them a pair of winter boots.

This week Nancy Wells spoke to us about water issues around the world and what we can do to preserve this precious commodity for the future. Did you know that it takes 1 to 2.5 gallons of water to make plastic and twice that amount to make a water bottle? A good reason to ban disposable water bottles! We were amazed to see how much water it takes to make the products we use. Nancy provided us with 3 important steps to improve conservation going forward: 1) Reuse/recycle and reduce consumption, 2) find ways to sustain our finite water resources and 3) work with nature, not try to master it. Good advice for us all.

 

Thanks to the many donated items, a beautiful sunny day, cheerful Rotarians and energetic buyers, we had a great day at the Hull Town-wide Yard Sale! Cars and motorcycles buzzed up and down the avenue while Tim demonstrated how to use a pogo stick and one of our newest members wore something that he doesn't usually bring out until after dark, a lampshade. Fun was had by all and we raised $300 for our club. A special thanks to Tim Smith, Kathy and John Childs, Kim Greaves, Ellie Atherton, Norbie Cebula and many friends who came by to give us a pep talk and okay, some chocolate. Thanks to everyone for your support!

The East Boston-Revere Club came by boat for a joint meeting at the Hull Yacht Club this week. As it was their 75th anniversary we gave them a citation and $75 towards their annual 3rd grade dictionary project. Our connection was immediate and we look forward to meeting them again in October. "One if by land (Nantasket-Hull) and two if by sea (East Boston-Revere)"!

 

Katelyn Williamson and her mom, Jen, visited our club this week to talk about her event-filled year in Brazil as a Rotary Youth Exchange student. She had many adventures and worked on various projects. Katelyn is an inspiration to us all! Good luck in San Diego as you attend college.
