January’s impact

Our January meeting location was provided by SPCC and they did a great job setting up space to conduct the meeting as well as having tea, lemonade and a cash bar. Three members made the following presentations.

– Lowcountry Autism Foundation by Scott Wild

– Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation by Jim Vesci

– St. James Food Bank by Chet Williams

All are well deserved opportunities and we should thank each presenter for their interest, passion and willingness to present to the group.

Members selected Lowcountry Autism Foundation with 57% of the votes as the next organization to receive our collective funds. We will work with LAF to schedule a day for a photo. 

January Meeting – PFS

As a result of our previous award to Pockets Full of Sunshine, Carol Bartholomew attended our January meeting to share the organization’s appreciation. She recalled the downpour of rain that day and surprise as a dozen members showed up for the check presentation as well as to learn more about PFS. I think everyone attending were interested, surprised at the accomplishments and impressed with the individuals in the group.

First Tee – The Low Country

“We, First Tee, enable kids to build the strength of character that empowers them through a lifetime of new challenges. By seamlessly integrating the game of golf with life skills curriculum, we create learning experiences that build inner strength, self-confidence, and resilience that kids carry to everything they do.”
