On Wednesday Morning, May 3, 2017, Jon Kukk led the Club in a beautiful invocation and the pledge. Sgt. At Arms, Robbie Selby, collected happy bucks. Jon Titus updated us on the June 3rd Paintball Tournament (start getting your teams lined up and let Jon know how you can help). Jon Kukk then updated us on the Tanzanian Water Project (description of project emailed). Our Club donated $5,000 to the $119K Grant Project that is being overseen by the North Naples Rotary Club. Our donation will be matched by District and then Rotary International (our 5K turns into $15K then)
President-Elect Jim Juliano then introduced our speaker, Liane Sanson, the local Area Director of Newborns in Need (NinN). NinN works with the Birth Place at Naples Community Hospital to provide care necessities to the Hospital and other agencies servicing premature, ill or impoverished newborns throughout Collier County. They provide “Baby Boxes” that can serve as a beginning crib, plus diapers, infant clothing, bottles, bath essentials, infant thermometers, blankets etc. You can check out more about NinN and see how you can help by visiting their website at: https://newbornsinneed.org/
Mark your calendars, unless otherwise stated, all our meetings are at Hyatt House Naples.
