--OPPORTUNITY TO VOLUNTEER IN THE NEW YEAR--
Western Rotaract Day of Giving will happen on Saturday, January 20th, from 10 AM to 4 PM. Rotarians volunteer drivers are needed & will be responsible for driving Rotaract Club members to the clients' homes. Although not mandatory, Rotarians may bring tools (e.g., toolkit, ladder) and help with the tasks. Rotarians can expect to drive Rotaract Club members to 1-2 clients' homes, each assignment should take about an hour. Clients are informed of the time limit prior; however, at Rotarian's/Rotaract Club members discretion, they can stay longer than an hour. We will provide personal protection equipment (PPE) such as masks and gloves for everyone's safety. We have yet to decide on the location for the event. However, we plan to be near Western University with accessible parking. We will inform you as soon as we have determined the site. Here is the spreadsheet for Rotarians sign-up:
