The hidden talent of our Rotarians continues to amaze me. J.P. gave an excellent example of this with showing us his magician skills.

Way to go J.P.!

ERC Fund Raising 1/16 to12/21

Rotary and BEYOND

Emmaus Rotarians truly do live a lifestyle of Service Above Self!

Many of us help with other organizations to raise funds for great causes. If you wish to mention your outside fund raising event at Rotary, just put up four Happy Dollars and let us know about what is going on. If I have a website link to your cause I will post it here.

Ex. I support the PA. Perimeter Ride Against Cancer which benefits the American Cancer Society and Dream Come True.

Check out some of the great work our fellow members are doing in our community outside of Rotary and learn how you can support their efforts.

Bob Halsey's Keeping Tabs on Us!

Can Tabs For The Miracle League LV / Submitted By Bob Halsey

In 2018 We started collecting the Tabs from all types of cans Soda, Beer, Seltzer, Tuna Fish, Sardines, Soup Cans, Etc. In 2018 we were able to deliver Five Full One Gallon Jugs of Tabs…Last year, 2019 we were able to deliver Three Full One Gallon Jugs of Tabs. So far this year 2020 we now have One Full One Gallon Jugs. I would hope we can again this year, 2020, can fill at least another Five Full One Gallon Jug OR MORE. I turn these into the Miracle League in the Middle of October, right before Halloween. They turn them into the Dupont Children’s Hospital in Wilmington Delaware. Other organizations also collect these Tabs, in total the Hospital has been able sell these for enough Money to pay 75% of the Utilities Cost in their Ronald House, where Families to stay at a very Nominal Cost when their Handicapped Children need to go for Treatment. You can bring Tabs every Thursday to our regular Breakfast Meetings.
