January programs
As we mark the halfway point of our Rotary year, we'll start the new calendar year with an update January 8th from our own Niki Litzel from the Salvation Army.  January 15th is the annual MLK Service Day, and we'll have a special service project...details to follow!  January 22nd, we'll hear from our local Rotaract Club, and January 29th, LuAnn Alemao will join us to discuss the Blue Zones Project.
 
Looking WAY ahead to February, we have set the date for Rural Urban Day on the 26th.
 
Stay warm this weekend and remember we DO NOT meet Monday January 1st - Have a Happy New Year!
 
 
Give the Gift of Rotary

For more than 100 years, The Rotary Foundation has been supporting Rotarians' work to create sustainable solutions to our world's most pressing needs. But there is still much to do, and we need your help.

Rotary gives in countless ways, focusing our service efforts in six areas: promoting peace, fighting disease, providing clean water, saving mothers and children, supporting education, and growing local economies. We're also working hard to end polio once and for all.

Give the gift of Rotary today and be a part of the positive change Rotarians are making in your community and around the world. Every gift makes a difference.

What can your donation do? Here's a few ideas...
 

$10 mosquito bed net

Bed nets provide a safe, peaceful night's rest in countries like Uganda, where malaria is a major health concern.

$15 polio vaccines

Polio is still a crippling threat to children in Afghanistan, Nigeria, and Pakistan. A gift of just $15 can protect children for life.

$50 water filter

In rural Guatemala, deadly waterborne diseases are common. Personal water filters fill the need for clean water.

$100 sewing machine

With a sewing machine, a microloan, and some training from Rotary, entrepreneurs can turn their sewing skills into a thriving business.

$200 medical equipment

Newborns start their lives healthy when hospitals have up-to-date equipment to care for babies in the first moments of their lives.

$500 anti-bullying campaign

No child should live in fear of being bullied. Your gift helps communities create a safe and positive atmosphere where children can thrive.

$1,000 conflict resolution training

When secondary school students learn to resolve conflict, they can build a more peaceful and secure future for themselves and their communities.

$2,650 irrigation system

In areas where food security is a concern, irrigation systems give farmers a reliable and efficient water source so they can grow crops and provide food for the community.

Your gift supports projects like those described here but may not purchase the specific items listed.
