On October 12, four Southside Rotarians volunteered to help out with JA in a Day at Mark Twain Elementary School. A big thanks to President Donna, Jordan, Brett, and Steve Haas for volunteering for this project, and an equally big thanks to Jordan for setting up this vocational project!
Mrs. Hood’s fourth grade class, where Donna worked for the day.
On September X, 2011, Tulsa Southside Rotarians invaded the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma. Our mission: To sort through cans. Lots, and lots of cans. I have never seen so many cans. We were joined in our efforts by a local chapter of the Boy Scouts of America.
The cool thing is, all of the food we sorted is being distributed to non-profit organizations devoted to feeding the hungry. And let me tell you, they are very talented at that. It turns out that the Food Bank distributes more than a MILLION pounds of food per month to those in need.
This was very rewarding work, and it was a ton of fun to see those kids running around gathering and sorting cans. Major kudos to the parents who are teaching their children to volunteer. Great job, guys.
We'd love to have you come by and attend one of our meetings. We'll buy you lunch and show you a good time. Come on by and catch that 'South Side' spirit!
