Board Meeting Recap

 
We had a Board meeting this week and here's what we did:
 
  • Voted to allocate $1,500 in our budget toward Neighbors Inc. Adopt-A-Family
  • Voted to approve $3,000 to ALMAS to support its efforts toward increasing high school graduation rates for Latino students. Johanna volunteered to be the group's liaison between our Club and theirs to facilitate and coordinate our community service activities.
  • AFTER our Board meeting, later in the week, we also voted to approve the new member application of JON SAMPSON!!  It was unanimously approved!  Yeah Jon!  He is a physical therapist and is already volunteering for our activities.
  • AFTER our Board meeting, we learned that our Heartline project in Haiti is fully funded!!  Here are the contributions we received from other Clubs SO FAR - we are expecting more to come, which will offset the $10,000 we committed from our own funds...
    • SSP            $1,750
    • Lakeville     $5,000
    • Roseville        $500
    • Shrewsbury $3,100
    • Prior Lake    $2,000
    • District Grant = $9,000
We look forward to seeing the construction project that will help this much-needed maternity center update its facilities.    Thanks to Bridget for her hard work in seeing this District Grant through to the end!
