This month we have three opportunities to Serve to Change Lives – a donation opportunity, a volunteer opportunity, and an opportunity to invite others to join us. Thanks to our Service Chairs, Tracy Kelly and Aunie Cordle and Membership Chair Mike Lieber.

Rotary Donation Opportunity – Hunger Action Month

September is "Hunger Action Month" and our friends at Fairfield County 211 have asked for our partnership in providing needed kitchen supplies for vulnerable local families. Many of the families served by Lancaster pantries lack basic food preparation and preservation items, such as ziplock bags, foil, cling wrap, can openers and measuring cups/spoons. Though they are seldom donated, such items are necessary to help these families make the best use of the food they receive, and to support the cooking skills needed for healthy nutrition. For the month of September, Rotarians are being asked to help these families by bringing new kitchen items, such as measuring cups and can openers, to Rotary meetings for collection. These items will then be distributed to Lancaster-based food pantries, with the support of Fairfield County 211. If you have questions about this project, or are unable to bring your item donation to a September Rotary meeting, please contact Tracy (tracyk@fmchealth.org) or Aunie at (Aundrea.Cordle@fairfieldcountyohio.gov) for details. Thank you so much for making a difference for our community in these uncertain times!

Rotary Membership Drive: Each one, bring one

Membership is the lifeblood of our organization and we know of no better way to grow our membership than through our own Rotarians.

Please review your work connections and your social friends to see if you can introduce anyone to our family of Rotarians to help us unite our community and change the world as Rotarians! We continue to look for ways to say thank you to those who have brought new members and to those who are new members! We can make a difference with your help!
