Norfolk Rotarians Contributed $3,025 to End Polio

To celebrate Jonas Salk's birthday, Norfolk Rotarians contributed $3,025 to the effort to eradicate polio. The funds donated will be matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation 2:1.

Foundation chair Sigur Whitaker said, "Norfolk Rotarians' on-going support of The Rotary Foundation's Polio Plus efforts underscore Rotary's commitment to this initiative since 1986. On behalf of the children who will be spared from this life changing disease, thank you!"

Poplar Hall Park Clean-up

Rotarians gathered at Poplar Hall Park to clean-up this 15 acre green space. The City of Norfolk makes the clean-up easy by providing not only tools for a hands free pick-up but also a nifty tool made by removing the strings from a tennis racket so that a trash bag can be attached on the rim with large clips. Pictured above from the left are Tom Ambler, Chris Bugg, Bill Eisenbeiss and Mike Richardson.

Norfolk Rotarians Pack Food Boxes

A group of Norfolk Rotarians packed 280 boxes of food at the Foodbank. We were glad to pitch in during this time of unparalleled need.

Keeping Norfolk Beautiful

It only took about two hours for Rotarians to fill a dozen bags with random plastic and other discarded items in Lafayette Park in Norfolk. We volunteered as part of the Keep Norfolk Beautiful efforts, which have been on hold because of COVID-19. It was a beautiful morning to be working in a socially distant way under the trees.

Saturday at the Foodbank

Rotarians had a productive morning on August 22 as they packed 700 boxes of food for the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore to give to families in need in our community. Working on an assembly line, we made boxes and filled them with rice, lentils, cereal canned vegetablkes, apple sauce, tuna and mayonnaise packets.
