Help Celebrate Your TRF Donors and Any Agnes Scott College Connections

• If You Have New Major Donors or Bequest Society Members: Contact your District Foundation Chair by March 22 to coordinate recognition.
• ·If You Have Agnes Scott College Connections: We are looking for short stories and photos we can share that showcase the difference that Agnes Scott College alumnae are making in the world – if they have a Rotary Connection all the better! One of those alumnae is Molly Wilson, who recently completed her Masters of Science in Global Health Policy at the University of Edinburgh as a Rotary Global Grant Scholar – and is now spending some of her time helping tell the story of a Global Grant Project in Lebanon where the Rotary Club of Atlanta and CARE International have partnered to address needs within the refugee camps. If you have a story to share, please send information to Jackie Cuthbert at cuthbert@mindspring.com by March 22, 2020.
