At the April 30 Meeting

Meeting starts at 12:00 PM
Lunch is... whatever you bring and are willing to eat on camera in front of your closest Rotarian friends!
Last week, a notice of motion was given to authorize the club's COVID-19 Response Committee to plan to disburse $7132.50 of leftover People of Action budget and unallocated service project funds. That motion will be made, debated, and voted on at this meeting.
Guest Speaker: Allison Kingston, the Community Fundraising Coordinator for ShelterBox Canada and Rotarian in the Rotaract Club of Toronto. Allison will be speaking to us about 20 years of Rotary and ShelterBox partnership!

In Case You Missed It...

Masks and Gloves

Rotarian Bill Steinburg would like to ask Rotarians who may have spare paper masks or rubber/latex/nitrile gloves (or would like to go on a treasure hunt for them!), St. Michael's Grove Manor could use them. You can reach out to Bill Steinburg if you can help: gamma4@telus.net

#ServiceAboveSelfSG

We've launched our social media project to show gratitude to essential workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. In conjunction, we've also expanded our social media presence. You can now follow the club @SGRotaryClub on Twitter and Instagram in addition to finding us on Facebook. Here's how you can participate:

On your own Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter account (or all three!), share a gratitude message about an individual or a vocation that you want to recognize. Make sure your post includes "@SGRotaryClub #ServiceAboveSelfSG" so that it shows up on our club's feed as well and gets associated with the hash tag.
You can also go to the club's Facebook's page and type your message where it says "Write a post..". Still be sure to include the hashtag #ServiceAboveSelfSG.
If you're not inclined to use social media yourself, simply email President Brad your message and he'll post it as the club. Let me know if you want it attributed to you or if you want it anonymous.
