Lafayette Rotary Foundation President TOM PEARSON presented the last installment of our $25,000 commitment to the Long Center Restoration to Dick Jaeger, president of the Long Center Board. He noted that the sum of Foundation giving and individual Rotarian contributions totaled over $100,000 to that impressive restoration project. |
The Foundation's ability to make these commitments depends on the generosity of our members. BARB HANSEN and RAY KAVANAUGH have reached Golden Service levels of giving and were presented with certificates and gold badges |
JIM FOSTER, program chair for February, introduced Cheryl Suter who organizes volunteers for both Home Hospital and St. Elizabeth Medical Center (Greater Lafayette Health Services). More than 500 volunteers are appreciated at these facilities. There is an application process to volunteer (TB and Rubella tests required) and a one day orientation session. The volunteer is then matched with an area of expertise and interest. She encouraged all of us to become a volunteer at one of the hospitals. | |
