| SERVICE PROJECTS We strive to make a difference in our community and provide a positive example for our children through meaningful service projects. Each year the club organizes at least one fundraiser and/or community service project to benefit a local children's charitable organization. The charity is selected by membership vote. Current Projects On Sept 20th, our chapter is organizing and sponsoring a Read for the Record community event as part of a nationwide effort to break the world record for the largest shared reading experience and raise public awareness about early education and literacy. Plans include fun & yummy treats, music, craft, and reading of the official campaign book "The Story of Ferdinand. " For more info, click here. The club plans to hold a fundraiser in Spring 2008 to benefit a local children's charitable organization. If you would like to donate time, money or raffle items for any of our future service projects please contact our Service Project Committee. Past Projects Spring 2007 the membership organized a fundraiser to benefit WarmLine Family Resource Center in Placer County, an organization that provides free help and resources to parents when their child is first diagnosed as having a special need. Because autism is on the rise (now affecting 1 in 100 kids), they are in desperate need of special books and DVDs to help parents facilitate communication with children having austism spectrum disorder. We raised over $1,100 to buy autism materials for the parent lending library. For more information about the event, please see the article in the Granite Bay View. |
