Rotarian Maureen Whelan will be travelling to Mexico in early March. Maureen is hoping to take some gently used clothing for boys and girls aged 6 through 15 or so. If you are able to support this effort please contact Maureen at mwhelan@atb.com. You may wish to consider an alternative. That would be to provide a gift of cash, and Maureen will purchase clothing for these young students while in Mexico.

I am sure you are well aware that as Club President I recieve many emails to do with club business that most other club members do not see. Below is part of an email I recieved this morning. I wanted to share this with you because it is news directly from Haiti from some of our fellow Rotarians right on the ground. Our club has raised over $6,000 for relief for the the people of Haiti. Our Board of Directors made the executive decision to divert $1,000 directly to Shelter Box Canada. ( See Shelterbox here)The remaining dollars will be sent to Haiti via our district. Rotary International plans to send 10,000 Shelter Boxes to Haiti. Rotary Canada hopes to send 1000 Shelter Boxes to Haiti. Each box costs $1,000. Please read the email exert below. It will give you one more reason to be proud to be a Rotarian.

The Response Team have set up a ShelterBox camp for up to 1,000 people on the Henfrasa sports field in Delmas, Port au Prince, Haiti, providing emergency shelter for the most in need and the most vulnerable.
ShelterBox Response Team member and General Manager Lasse Petersen said: 'We agreed with the local community that the initial tent allocation would be for families with pregnant women and families with newborns.
