In this season of Thanksgiving, we are reminded to count our blessings and to raise up those in need. One way to help others is to contribute to our club’s fund raising efforts for ShelterBox. Many lost their homes due to recent hurricanes and floods and ShelterBox has provided much needed help as the victims begin the process of rebuilding. Click here to learn more about current relief efforts by ShelterBox around the world. Each ShelterBox costs $1000. With your gifts so far, we have almost raised enough funds to fund two ShelterBoxes. We will be passing the basket at Thursday morning’s meeting for the last time in this funds drive, so please be prepared to give generously. Please make your checks payable to the Emmaus Rotary Club Foundation.
Yours in Rotary,
Burt
PS - Don’t miss this week’s fellowship event at House & Barn (1449 Chestnut St, Emmaus) on Wednesday November 15 from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. The event will feature a cash bar and the club will provide light snacks. We held a similar event at House & Barn last year which members really enjoyed. Thanks very much to Fellowship Committee co-chairs Bryce Ruggieri & Valerie Deneen and your entire team for organizing this event. Hope to see many of you on Wednesday evening!
