'Service Above Self' was awesomely demonstrated on Thursday, September 5th by Rotary Del Sol volunteers and spouses who turned out in spades to help with the sorting of 40 boxes of Bombas socks. These socks will be in turn be delivered to more than 14 agencies that support Homeless and Indigenous communities. This event, organized by Christine Glidden of 'Women-to-Be", was extremely challenging taking place on the baking asphalt at the Salvation Army parking lot.
It was heart-warming and inspirational to witness Del Sol volunteers and spouses get to work on this very impactful project on such short notice.
Rotary del Sol provided 14 volunteers ( including spouses ) to make this a successful and efficiently operated service project. We got the job done in an hour's time when it was expected to take three hours!
Hats off to Ron and Cindy Hensley, Bruce and Kathy Shaffer, Lance and Sue Ellis, Michele and Bob Mals, Meredith Eisenberg, Bruce Bortner, Mitch Selking, Davis Riordan, Jacqueline Hockey, and last but not least Wayne Yevoli (plus Jared Bousliman ( who was on his way there ). .
With Gratitude and Appreciation,
Michele M. Mals
Community Service Director
