Fellow Cedar Park-Leander Rotarians,
As we begin 2022, it’s a great time to reflect on all we did to affect the community and the people around us since our fiscal year began on July 1:
- Collected gifts for Austin’s Angels birthday box distribution.
- Supported Austin’s Angels with backpack assembly for children in Foster Care
- Participated in Leander ISD’s Backpack Attack
- In conjunction with The Dog Alliance, assembled “Bow Wow Boxes” for delivery to local Heroes
- Participated in Deb’s Dream Golf Tournament by hosting the Michelada Bar.
- Supported Reveal Ministries with their weekly food distribution.
- Attended Pints for Polio at Whitestone Brewery with the Rotary Club of Northwest Austin.
- Attended the Field of Honor Luncheon with the Rotary Club of Georgetown.
- Attended the Pflugerville Rotary Club Casino Night, helping them raise funds for community events.
- Helped the American Legion Post 911 with their annual “Breakfast with Santa” event.
- Rang the Salvation Army Bell in front of Walmart for the Annual Christmas Fund Drive.
- Purchased books for the students of Bagdad Elementary and distributed them with the help of Santa
- Collected Christmas gifts and household needs for staff and residents of Hope House
Your efforts embody what it means to be a Rotarian. We fulfilled our vision statement, “Together, we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change—across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves. ”Your generosity of time, effort and funds helped support those in need in the community around us. Well done!
We have another 6 months of activities planned. Reach out to a board member and ask how you can be involved.
Mahatma Gandhi said it best,
“Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become YOUR WORDS.
Keep your words positive because your words become YOUR BEHAVIOR.
Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes YOUR HABITS.
Keep your habits positive because your habits become YOUR VALUES.
Keep your values positive because your values become YOUR DESTINY.”
Welcome to 2022.
In Rotary,
Dee Thomas, Club President
Here is one of our current, local charity groups that we endorse and help out with on a regular basis:
Reveal Resource Center
Food Pantry: The Reveal Resource Center is a non-profit organization dedicated to feeding families through both physical and spiritual resources! It takes more than one person to spread the message of compassion, and Reveal Resource Center cannot exist without the support of others!
Community Clothes Closet: If your Church, School, Business, Agency or Family would like to take action to eliminate hunger and provide resources for self sufficiency, you can support this ministry through the following areas: Canned Food, Clothing Drive, Monetary Donations and Volunteer work.
Distribution of food and clothing takes place on Mondays from 7pm-8pm and Tuesdays from 9am-12pm (volunteer shifts start 30 minutes before each time).
To learn more or volunteer, please visit their website: http://www.revealresourcecenter.com/
Come join us as we show the best of "Rotarians at work" by helping at Reveal Ministeries Food Pantry. For over 5 years selflessly serving over 200-400 families per week who find themselves in need.
