The news might sound like a song title, but it's indeed true: Annie Johnston fractured her leg while in Mexico with her sister and a friend. Dave has gone to assist her during this difficult time. Regrettably, due to her condition, he was unable to fly her home, necessitating surgery in Mexico. Fortunately, the surgery was successful. Dave has secured a bed and breakfast for their stay as Annie recuperates and until she can safely travel by air. Annie is handling the situation bravely and has even shared a photo to express her gratitude for everyone's kind thoughts and well-wishes. She assures everyone that she is doing well.

 

The El Cajon Rotary Grant Cycle has commenced. The updated application is now available for members upon request. Sandy will bring the grant application forms to our meeting on July 2 for you to take. Remember, the deadline to submit grant applications is August 15! We will be holding a non-attendance gala to fundraise for this effort.

We aim to award numerous grants with significant amounts to the qualifying and chosen organizations. This year, our non-attendance gala will be supported by donations from club members and any interested individuals in the community. The Foundation has pledged a 3-to-1 match to help us reach a funding amount comparable to that of last year. Contributing early will aid in determining the number of beneficiaries we can support this year. Donations can be made to the El Cajon Foundation by check, or online contributions can be processed through Sandy.
