Surprise! I’m talking about Rotary International, which was started in Chicago in 1905 and has over a million members worldwide! Some of you know my husband and I are members, too, so I figured why not share this little piece of trivia- especially since it’s the season of charity and good will, and we all could use some more of that.

Because of Covid, the weekly meetings for the local club Ron and I belong to have been via Zoom, and we’ve been continuing to find ways to help while social distancing. Once we’re back to normal, I look forward to meeting again in person and noshing on yummy breakfast spreads!
Our big fundraiser for the year is a charity run, and for 2020, we converted to a step challenge that was quite successful! It’ll be interesting to see what happens in 2021! I know many other clubs have been innovative, too, because need doesn’t stop.

Thanks again for reading, and I wish you all a safe and bountiful holiday season! They’re saying to celebrate distantly this year, and I know it’s going to be especially hard on many of us to be away from our family and friends (including us!). So give yourselves extra time for self care.
Take care of yourselves, and check in on your neighbors- especially the elderly and those with disabilities. If you’re under quarantine and need help with getting by, even if it’s just to have someone to talk to, let me know. I’ll find a way to help. Black Lives Matter.
And please remember, I always have time for you and your referrals!
