July 17, 2009 – Several ladies of the Santa Rosa Rotary West club’s
membership met for lunch at Diane Winsby’s home in Windsor to celebrate five
member’s birthdays. Diane provided the lunch with the request that each
attendee give a small donation to the Redwood Empire Food Bank of which she
would give a personal match, and another match of her donation would come
from her former employer Chevron Oil. Wonderfully,
several members’ companies added to the donation: First Community Bank gave
$100 and Santa Rosa Recycling & Collection, Inc. gave $200; we thank them
for their generosity. When the dust settled our little back yard picnic came
up with a total donation of $1,125.00 for the Food Bank.
According to the Redwood Empire Food Bank’s website this cash donation will
allow them to distribute nearly $5,000 worth of food to needy people in our
community of which many are children, low income seniors and disabled
people. Not only did we enjoy a wonderful picnic lunch, and good Rotarian
fellowship, we were able to help others in our community….thanks to everyone
who donated, your generosity is appreciated.
