The West Ohio Food Bank's "Senior Food Box" program does its first "on the road" packing event today at the Lima Rotary Club meeting. The food bank brought everything they needed to pack two pallets of boxes. Rotarians were quick to get in line and fill the boxes with all types of commodities that will provide meals for a couple of weeks for a senior citizen.
Is it the TRUTH? Is it FAIR to All Concerned? Will it Build GOODWILL and Better Friendships? Will it Be BENEFICIAL to All Concerned? This is what Rotarians base their service on and each year hold a speech contest for scholarships. Today the top three winners presented their essays. The first-place winner centered the interpretation around parents and how they need to take a step back and look around.
Each week, Rotarians buy 50/50 tickets with the proceeds handed out quarterly to a non-profit agency. On Monday, $355 was donated to the Lima Rescue Mission on West Wayne Street. The club makes a donation to a non-profit quarterly with their "Rottery" drawing.
