Thank you to all the WGA Rotarians for coming out to volunteer at Project CURE on April 30.  We had amazing club participation and I am very proud of our club.  We really work well together!

 

ZOOM is an organization that helps transport well people who have no way to get to medical appointments in our area.  They may be seniors, adults or pregnant women needing prenatal care.

If you can drive once a month, it would be a great help!

Our club is distributing turkeys at The Bridge on Tuesday evening, November 21, from 5:30- 7.  If you have an extra turkey that you would like to donate to needy members in our community, please bring it to The Church of the Nazarene on State Road.  If you would like to donate but are unable to drop off your turkey, please contact us using the link above.  Thank you!

Larry Thompson sang the National Anthem at the Phillies game again for the third straight year.  Thank you Larry for your commitment to Rotary, your support of the Phillies, and sharing your beautiful voice!

 

What a great presentation we had today by Canine Partners for Life featuring Janet Cooper and Sage.  This wonderful organization provides an incredible service to disabled individuals as well as those suffering from diabetes and heart disease.  We were able to support them with a small donation- hoping to increase it in the future!

 

 

 

This morning Kathy Hrenko told our club about the many volunteer opportunities at Project C.U.R.E's Mid-Atlantic distribution center at the Dansko warehouse.  Before we can volunteer, you will need to make a profile. We will schedule a group volunteering event when the center is ready in January 2016.  Click on the link to get started:https://projectcure.org/volunteer

On October 20 our club sponsored Family Literacy Night at Avon Grove Intermediate School.  The program began with an overview of the importance of regular reading at home. Literacy specialists reviewed topics such as how to select "just right" books for children to read independently. Parents were invited to attend two workshops of their choice while their children were entertained by a local storyteller. He kept students actively engaged in a series of enchanted tales as their parents were busy learning about literacy.

 

During the workshops, parents learned specific tips and techniques to use with children at home. After participating in the two workshops of their choice, parents joined their children in the cafeteria for some final storytelling.  The children were then invited to choose a book to take home.  These books were provided by the WGA Rotary.
