A big thanks for all who have helped the homeless over the last couple months. As you know this is a major emphasis of our District Governor, Nalani. As a new Club, we have sure done our part, thanks to your hard work and dedication. We made it a goal this month to look for a new permanent home for our Club to meet. Please continue to look for possibilities and bring them up at our meetings. In the meantime, Mylene has been so generous allowing us to use her place which we call "home" for now.
Our regularly scheduled meeting is this Thursday @ 1800. We continue to meet at R&M Reyes Enterprise, LLC in Halawa (99-899 Iwaena St #111, Aiea, HI 96701). Parking is available in the complex in front of R&M Reyes Enterprise, along with ample street parking.
As we have done in the past and until we find a permanent home for our weekly meetings, we encourage you to bring a dish to share (potluck style) and your favorite drink.
DG Nalani would like to send a "Mahalo Plenty" message for the outpouring of generosity to provide household items to the homeless families that are moving in to the permanent homes at Kahauiki Village. With every one of the 26 clubs on Oahu participating in this project, Rotary District 5000 is providing pots, pans, toothbrushes, hairdryers, shower curtains, baby bottles and much more to each family moving in this first phase of the project.
A rough, old, half-a-block of dirt and stubble along Seaside Avenue and Royal Hawaiian Avenue in the center of Waikiki, is about to become a beautiful, safe, monitored, iconic park, chronicling Rotary’s Centennial of service and the history of Waikiki.
