Shoes for Grand Rapids Rotary

Raul Fierro is collecting shoes one last time next week on December 9th meeting for the Grand Rapids Rotary project. Do you have shoes you no longer need or wear? Has your child outgrown their shoes? Those unwanted shoes can do more than collect dust on the closet floor – Donate them to the Grand Rapids Rotary Club! The Grand Rapids Rotary Club is collecting shoes and Funds2Orgs will distribute them to small business owners in Central America, South America & Africa. - See more at: http://harbortownrotary.com/Stories/shoes-for-grand-rapids-rotary#sthash.ZjNPYzkv.dpuf

Spaghetti Dinner

(Spaghetti and meatballs, breadsticks, salad)

Mt Olive Church, 20th Ave E. and Superior St., Duluth.

4:00 – 7:00 pm

Tickets: $10.00 (under five – free)

Brad Bennett served in South Vietnam in 1966. His experience left a scar on his

soul. In 2014, he returned to the village of Ap Chin An, a poor rice harvesting

community, to visit the elementary school. With the help of donations he was

able to improve some of the conditions. This year,

he will return to the school and would like to once

again improve on ongoing projects in this war

ravaged village.

Please attend to raise funds for this much needed

cause.

Ensure recognition for your Interact clubs
Interact clubs are making a positive difference in schools and communities around the world. Leaders of sponsor Rotary clubs and districts should make sure their Interact clubs get the recognition they deserve by verifying that they qualify for a Presidential Citation. First, ensure that the Interact club status is active in Rotary's database by checking the Listing of Club-Sponsored Organizations report in Rotary Club Central. If a sponsored club is not listed, submit the Interact Club Certification Form by 1 March. Then, verify by 15 April that your Interact clubs have qualified for the...

Ebay to donate share of Live Auctions proceeds to Rotary
Rotary members, their families and friends can support Rotary’s work by bidding on antiques, artwork, jewelry, and collectibles through eBay Live Auctions events. Each month, Rotary will promote on its social media outlets a set of upcoming Live Auctions events, and eBay, the world’s largest auction website, will donate a portion of all sale proceeds from those events to Rotary. Live Auctions events enable buyers to participate in auctions across the United States -- held at such auction houses as Sotheby’s, Swann, and Freeman’s -- without leaving home. Under this proceeds-sharing...

Beware of new email scam claiming to be from Foundation Chair Klinginsmith
A new email purporting to be from Rotary Foundation Trustee Chair Ray Klinginsmith is targeting Rotary members. The email falsely claims that members can become End Polio Now ambassadors if they email club information to a Gmail address within 48 hours. The fraudulent email has the subject line “BECOME AN END POLIO AMBASSADOR” and is sent from a fake email address. This is a scam. Rotary staff is working to resolve the issue. Avoid being the victim of scams by deleting any email that appears suspicious.
