Our E-Club completed a District Grant Project with Rotary Club of Ankleshwar in India. This District Grant will financially empower the economically challenged women of Ankleshwar and surrounding villages, making them independent for years to come by allowing them to educate and support their families. The Women's Empowerment Project provides vocational training to the needy women then employment where they can make school uniforms, industrial dresses and lab aprons. More than 1500 women have benefited by this ongoing project. We thank Rtn Manish from Rotary Club of Ankleshwar our EClub Naresh for their work and cooperation to complete this humanitarian project.

Our eClub meeting is this Saturday, Feb. 10 at 10 AM (Eastern Time.) We have a special guest speaker, Mario Cesar Martins de Camargo! Email: [email protected] if you'd like to join us.

Our eclub supported a local food/fund drive both with canned goods and a donation. Treasurer Molly presented a $500 check for Country Kids Food Pantry, Inc. to Larry Weinberg. Larry's job (and passion) is food rescue so he held this food drive to benefit Country Kids Food Pantry. The buying power of a Food Pantry is much higher that what we could purchase on our own. It was gratifying for our club to be able to participate in such a worthwhile project.

Our eclub joined with a local church's Christmas for Kids Project. The schools in the school district provided a listing of the student's requested gifts to the church. We were able to purchase $25 gift cards for 14 children who specifically requested cards from a particular store. Two of our members, Fred and Molly, participated in a 3 hour Wrapping Party where about 400 gifts, including our gift cards, were wrapped for the 170 children who requested gifts. It was heartwarming for our club to be able to participate in a project that brought joy to so many children.

Happy New Year Fellow Rotarians! Together we can create hope in the world!

Merry Christmas to all!

Wishing everyone a happy holiday season!!!!!!

The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives both close to home and around the world. During the past 100 years the Foundation has spent $3 billion on life-changing sustainable projects.

District Governor Peter Sullivan did his official visit at our E-Club monthly meeting yesterday! Thank you DG Peter for your inspiring words.
