Community Service
by Scott Sanders |
|
|
Fellow Rotarians:
I was asked to write a few words concerning our Community Service Committee. To get a better idea what "Community Service" should include I did a little research. The Newport Irvine Rotary Club describes Community Service as "activities which Rotarians undertake to improve the quality of life in their community".
Our club undertakes many activities that improve the quality of life in and around Ames.
-
Our Fall and Spring cleanup on Mortenson Road
-
Providing meals at the Ames Emergency Shelter on the 5th Wed of every month
-
Adopt-A-Family over Christmas
These are three outstanding activities that truly improve the quality of life in Ames and are being done because of Ames Morning Rotary. I would like to challenge everyone to think of an activity that Morning Rotary could consider that would improve the quality of Life in Ames. Contact Dave Miller or me if you have any suggestions.
