We will not be meeting this Friday due to the District 6920 Conference in Macon, Georgia.
may service project - book drive for GROW
Our May service project is a simple, meaningful way to make a real impact and it’s perfectly aligned with Rotary’s commitment to literacy.
The entire month of May, we’re partnering with GROW Initiative GA, a local non-profit that supports vulnerable communities through education, health, and community engagement. Their summer literacy program is scheduled just around the corner in July, and we have an opportunity to help set these children up for success.
We’re organizing a bilingual book drive and participating is easy:
Visit the GROW Initiative GA Amazon wishlist (link is below)
Purchase one (or more!!) of the requested bilingual books or other educational items
Ship the items to yourself & then bring them into a May meeting (5/8, 5/15, or 5/29)
Dr. Shonna McGhee is a Physician at Coastal Care Partners. She will talk to us about the concierge medicine model which is used by Coastal Care Partners.
It is a membership-based approach to primary care that focuses on more personalized, accessible, and proactive service compared to traditional practices.
