Jace is going on a Mission to Malawi Africa on March 20.  He plans to visit 3 Orphanages in this very poor land locked African Country and find out what these organizations need most to sustain their work - we can't think of a more humanitarian gesture!

JACE SHARED STORIES OF HOPE FOR THE CHILDREN. THE ORPHANGE NOW PROVIDES SAFETY AND NURTURING TO 120 CHILDREN. JACE IS FUNDRAISING TO PAY FOR THIS TRIP. COFFEE BAGS CAN BE PURCHASED AT $25 EACH… THE SUPPLIER WILL TURN OVER PROFITS IF JACE CAN SELL A MINIMUM AMOUNT.  LET’S GO FOR IT FOLKS!

JACE THANKED THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR INVITING HIM TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS MISSION. SOME FUNDS MAY BE REQUESTED FROM THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE WHEN JACE HAS A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE NEEDS ARE AT THESE FACILITIES.

  

  • PRESIDENT GORD PROVIDED AN UP-DATE ON THE DISTRICT PUBLIC RELATIONS INTIATIVE. THREE LOCAL CLUB PRESIDENTS MET TO DISCUSS HOW TO PROCEED … FUNDS FROM THE DISTRICT MUST BE SPENT WITHIN 3 MONTHS. VIDEO CONFERRENCING MEETING WITH OTHER CLUBS IN THE REGION BROUGHT FORTH SEVERAL IDEAS FOR LOCAL INITIATIVES. NEWSPAPER ADS? STORY NEWS ARTICLES ON LOCAL PROJECTS?. COST TO THE CLUB FOR PAID ADVERTISING IS NOT THE PREFERRED OPTION. GORD WANTS FEEDBACK FROM CLUB MEMBERS FOR HIS NEXT MEETING.
  • PRESIDENT GORD ANNOUNCED THE RECRUITMENT OF NEW CHAIRPERSON FOR “VIVA VEGAS” COMMITTEE IS ON! BILL COOPER IS WILLING TO MENTOR THE NEW IN-COMING CHAIRPERSON.
