Our speaker last week was Amarok Society with Gem and Tanyss Munro. They are doing incredibly moving work educating women in the slums of Bangladesh, and partnering with Rotary Clubs in Dhaka to increase the impact.
Second...Club Assembly/Final Prep meeting on Thursday 2/23:
Please join us on Thursday Feb 23rd for our final prep meeting for both Good Morning Great Cause and Special Day for Special Kids. We will have a buffet style breakfast.
And... welcome new members!
One of the best parts of being Club President is inducting new members to the Club! Let's welcome our newest members: Jim Wilson, Francine Jacoby, Dr. Deepak Sharma, and Casey Lockard!
Next... GMGC:
We still need auction items! The GMGC breakfast on February 25th will feature both Live and Silent auction items, which raises a lot of money for funding Special Day for Special Kids.
Through the month of February we are collecting donations for the City of Scottsdale's Day Relief program, which serves around 60 homeless people each week.
You can bring the following items, new or gently used/opened, to any SSRC meeting as a donation:
Shampoo
Soap
Lotions & sunscreens
Deodorant
Shaving cream & disposable razors
Chap sticks
Hand and body wipes
Bushes & combs
Toothbrushes & toothpaste
Feminine hygiene items
Socks, underwear, blankets

We're looking for future Rotarians. Give the gift of Rotary!
Invite a friend, or call a Club member we haven't seen in a while. We're always looking for great people to join us in making a difference in our beautiful city.
