The Community Service Committee has TWO projects happening in the month of November!
#1 Salvation Army Night Watch:
The Community Service Committee is collecting cash and/or gently used or new coats, sweatshirts, beanie hats for the Salvation Army Night Watch program. The collection will run through November. You can donate through the link on the newsletter/website. The cost for 1 bundle (coat, Sweatshirt, and beanie) is $43. If the Club can collect enough for 20 kiddos to receive a bundle, then Rob Walker has committeed to donating for 10 more!
The Community Service Committee is collecting cash and/or NEW underwear for the Open Door Mission. 300 pairs of underwear would serve 33 men experiencing homelessness. So that’s one week of underwear in the Mens Center. The collection will run through November. You can donate through the link on the newsletter/website.
Rotary maintains 10 libraries in North Omaha filling them every 4-6 weeks. If you have any used books or want to volunteer to stock them, contact Bonnie Gill.
