Our speaker this Friday will be Dee Shelley, an Educator with Gift of Life.

When Nate and Kim Harbur’s son, Luke, needed a pediatric liver transplant in 1996, the shortage of available organs and lack of awareness became apparent. During this time, Melody and Kris Drake lost their eight year old son, Aaron, due to a tragic accident while camping in the Ozarks. Luke received Aaron’s liver and now lives a full life.

Following his recovery, the Harburs joined forces with others, including the Drake family, to create Gift of Life, a nonprofit organization that offers educational information to schools, civic groups and spiritual communities. Annually, Gift of Life reaches 30,000 students and their families through the Life Savers℠ program and more through community out reach. The Transplant Mentors program provides volunteers to assist individuals and their families during their transplant journey.

Beer/Soda Can Collection

Annual Beer/Soda Can Fundraiser

It is that time of year again! Sergeant-At-Arms, Fred Spears, has passed out beer and soda cans to members. Each year for the past several years, we have done this and donated the proceeds to a local charity. Last year the proceeds were given to pay for school supplies for low-income students. The charity has yet to be determined for this year.

Here is the process:

Drink the beer/soda
Rinse out the can
Let the can dry
Fill the can with money - coins, dollar bills or checks
Put your name on the outside of the can
Return the can to Fred Spears

If you don't yet have a can, Fred will be passing cans out the next few weeks.
