Aug 19, 2015 -Members (Harry, Rob, Doug, Dave, Jeff, Machel and Ken) of the Kyrene Rotary Club volunteered Wednesday morning,  for Project C.U.R.E. at the Tempe distribution warehouse. We also met several new Project Cure volunteers and staff members. We donate our time four times a year to help sort donated medical supplies for Project C.U.R.E. We also help on special occasions to load cargo boxes bound for various foreign countries. We had great fellowship over lunch when we finished the project.

Aug 17, 2015 - Today Susan Iniguez and Jeanine Dougherty from the Roosevelt School District gave us an overview of the district, its history, mission, accomplishments, and goals. They spoke specifically about the Dictionary Project which our club has been involved with since 2008.  Our club has contributed over 8000 dictionaries since that time (WOW). We were very pleased to learn how much this program has meant to the 3rd graders, teachers, and the district administration. After all these years it was great to meet a couple of the people we have relied upon to help set up the logistics each year.  There were many questions and several members stayed late to have further discussions. We definitely increased the bonds between the district and our club.

Aug 10, 2015 - Today Irina Baker gave us a presentation related to "Don't Blame a Mirror for Your Ugly Face". She told us her history - beginning in Russia then immigrating to Orlando in 1995. She found the adjustment difficult but learned how to bring her physical and spiritual selves into balance.  She recommends that individuals must accept the physical and spiritual aspects of themselves and learn how to value themselves.  She advised us that we have the choice of either ignoring or following our dreams.  She has published several books and consults with organizations and individuals to help them achieve success on multiple levels.  Visit her website for more information.
