[Rotary] Sherwood Oaks Support

[Harold Hauck]

Hi John,
I can be a driver to deliver meals, hopefully 5 - 7 Club members will be able to help with this need I think the volunteer needs will be a topic for discussion at Thursday’s club meeting. Also, I think our club should consider adopting Sherwood Oaks as a Covid-19 Project for funding of the needs you identify as we progress through very difficult time.

Several nurses are living in isolation in order to protect their families and the community at large.  Gifts of wholesome food would be most welcome and helpful.  A balanced diet is a necessity, particularly in times of stress.

No personal contacts will be necessary, just place the package on the doorstep, step back and stay long enough to make sure they get it.  Home cooked meals are terrific of course, and packaged deli or restaurant meals are good too.  Any cash donations will be spent 100% on food.
