UPCOMING SERVICE PROJECTS
Our October service project will be working on donated bikes at the Boise Bicycle Project. 
 
Our November service project is going to be a partnership with JEMfriends youth to create 300 ornaments for a tree at the United Way Holiday Helper event. I need a little help with brainstorming, planning and logistics. Please reply to me if you want in on the organizing fun. 
WE STAINED A PIECE OF FENCE
For our service project last Tuesday, a great bunch of Rotarians arrived at the new LEAP project on Shields Ave to stain a new fence. Problem was, the fence wasn't finished yet! No problem, we just stained what was there - about half of the finished product. Thanks to Tyson for organizing the event and providing some some interesting lunch options!
 
GLOBAL GRANT FOR UGANDA?

We're looking into the possibility of supporting a Rotary Foundation Global Grant to provide funds to Uganda's efforts to improve water quality and sanitation. Here are some facts for your consideration:

 

The Uganda Water Crisis: Facts, Progress, and How to Help

 | Clean Water News Poverty Cycle

Over 21 million people in Uganda are living without basic access to safe drinking water. That’s 51 percent—a majority of the population—in the East African country.

But, it’s not just about water. The water crisis is inseparable from the sanitation and hygiene crisis; together, these form what is known as “WASH,” three factors that greatly impact health.

Uganda is making a way out of the water and sanitation crisis and building a foundation from which to thrive. The country is growing and changing, and people are rising to the challenge to create better, healthier lives. Below are the top facts you should know about the Uganda water and sanitation crisis today and how you can help put it to an end.

WISE FAMILY MUFFINS

The Muffin Sale will probably be from September 29th to October 6th.  In past years my family has raised on average $10,000.  With the help of the club, I'd like to shoot for $15,000.

I need help in 2 ways:

1.) Rotarians to sell muffins to their circle of influence

2.) Rotarians to help bake muffins

Please email me if you can help with item 1, 2 or both.  Then I can provide you with more information.
