From Jennifer Giovinazzo's post on our club's website:

 

Our board gave $500 to this fine organization.  In a letter from them to Susan:  "On behalf of Engineers Without Borders-UMN, we want to express our deepest gratitude to you and the West St. Paul/Mendota Heights Rotary for your generous support of our Simajuleu project in Guatemala. Your contribution is helping us make meaningful strides toward improving access to clean drinking water for the 3,500 residents of this community"  The group will keep us posted on progress at they go forward. 

A couple of weeks ago, Rotarians Jennifer Giovinazzo, David Miller, and Dave Hanson went to Town Square TV and made a couple of commercials which Town Square will air.  Check them out at https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/xnyfdjyjqoyl1sv7ezto2/AAHcVjMr25SupQ3TtuCbQtg?rlkey=9zn8p1ve6sehpbqsrwgodbi16&st=68cl9u5x&dl=0

Prez Val Namen and David Miller are heading up our club's Fundraising Committee.  Please let them know if you have any fundraising ideas and/or would like to join their committee!

The board would like to have local businesses present a 3 minute introduction to their company at each meeting.

Please let Dave Hanson know if you have someone and he'll add them to the meeting schedule.

One 3 minute presentation at each meeting would be the goal.

Thanks in advance.
