Most of us lead lives of abundance. So do the people on our Xmas list. Yellowknife Rotary now offers us an opportunity to do something meaningful this holiday season. Instead of another unneeded gift, or more sweets to eat ... give people on your guest list a card from our Club, confirming that you made a donation that bought a wheelchair for someone who can't afford one. Bring your chequebook on Thursday!
