Welcome to Disease Prevention and Treatment Month. Rotarians are passionate about battling diseases because we believe every human has the right to basic health care. Unfortunately, more than 400 million people lack access to or cannot afford this essential care. Rotarians and their partners have a proven track record in the fight against diseases.
Joseph Howe School is having a big breakfast for all the students on December 19, and they need some helpers! It's from 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM. They got a special grant to make this breakfast happen. If you want to help out or learn more, ask Adrienne!
As our wine survivors were banished from the tribe, an unusual thing happened. Spontaneous poetry erupted from the email chains. Here is a collection of poetry we are calling "Grapes of Wrath: Verses from the Vineyard's Edge". See the elimination video here.
We started with 16 thirsty survivors, and Mike Gibson is our champion, followed by Alex Russell and Bob Power. Thank you, everyone, for playing along and helping us raise over $400 for the club. See the elimination videos below...
We are coordinating opportunities to volunteer for the Salvation Army Christmas Kettle Campaign at the Halifax Shopping Center. Dates (options are Dec 11, 18 or 19) and times have not been confirmed. If you are interested in volunteering, please reach out to Dav.
Louisa Horne is modelling how to be a Kettle volunteer during last year's campaign.
We acknowledge that our club is in Mi'kma'ki, the traditional and ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people. We recognize the peace and friendship treaties signed between the British Crown and the Mi'kmaq from 1760 to 1769. We are all treaty people and we have rights and responsibilities as Mi'kmaq and settlers alike.
