FAMILY OF ROTARY
Our membership cares deeply about the needs and concerns of our members. We don’t want to miss an opportunity to reach out in friendship when such concerns arise. The chairperson of this committee is Lynn Dunn and all news should be directed to her at lynn.dunn@rmcpa.com
Roswell Rotary is on the front lines of serving the community. Our ability to support those in need is in direct correlation with the success of our golf and tennis tournament as 100% of the proceeds go directly to the charities we support.
I ask that every member of our club support our fundraiser in some fashion. Thank you to those that have already sponsored or volunteered.
Please consider a sponsorship and/or donation and let Danny or Rich know how you can help.

Time to start loosening up for the Hagan Tennis Tourney Sept 14th. Even if you haven’t played in a while, or just need a change of scenery, this a great, fun way to see others in such a unique time. 2 pros – Todd Black and Michael Strahan, Brookfield Country Club – all refreshments and encouragement you need!
Please pass on to players you know. Let Lee Hollingsworth know that you will see him there. lee@leehollingsworth.com.
You might think that Gate City Brewery offering a "Pint for a Pint," is why members, members' employees, friends and family would be quick to register for a time to donate blood. Donate a pint of blood, and receive a pint a coupon for Freedom Fighter or any other Gate City libation.
You might think that the COVID-19 test is why. Or the Amazon gift card you'll receive (that you could in turn donate to HomeStretch).
“My father fought in the Korean War and saw many heroes give their lives for this country. He always impressed upon me to give back by giving blood so others can live,” shared Darrell Bartlett. Every day more people are diagnosed with illness such as cancer, leukemia and sickle cell disease, all which use blood for treatment. One pint of blood can help up to three people. Each unit of blood can be separated into four components - red cells, plasma, cryoprecipitate and platelets. These components can help as many as three different hospital patients. "I always feel good within my heart and my soul about giving blood to help others with whatever trauma they might be experiencing in their lives at the time they need blood."
