Lincoln South Rotary Club is partnering with the Habitat For Humanity by providing trees for a home being built in Lincoln. We will hear from John Hanshaw of the Habitat For Humanity at our March 16 meeting.
One of the Guiding Principles of Rotary - the Object of Rotary - includes fostering high ethical standards in business and professions. On March 9 we heard from Dr. Kate Speck of the UNL Public Policy Center on the topic of Professional Ethics: Operating in an Ethical Vacuum.
Lincoln South Rotary Club has many activities, special events and holidays coming up the next couple of months. Watch the website calendar closely for meeting changes. We will not meet at The Venue March 23, March 30, April 20 or April 27. But, we will meet most of those weeks - at an alternate location, time, and/or day. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy Rotary outside of a regular meeting!
It is time to sell (or buy) tickets for the Annual Grocery Grab with Russ's. The Grocery Grab is our major source of funds for the Scholarship awards.
Last year the winner was a single mom who filled the family freezer and pantry with $1,000 in food! A couple of years ago the winning ticket benefited Saint Mark's Food Pantry - a great way to support the needy in our community.
Lincoln South Rotary Club Members nominated members to serve on the Club Board from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2020. The nominations have been narrowed to 4 and we are voting for 2 of those to serve on the Board.
Members are asked to present ideas of potential projects for us to support - non-profit organizations needing help. We have two opportunities for grants for $1,000 and $2,000. Please bring your ideas to Clay Ehlers or Lance Odom.
