Rotary Clubs and Members contribute to Covid 19 Disaster Relief

Rotary Club of Wichita Falls North along with District 5790

assists in $161,000 Grant with focus on COVID-19 relief efforts

in North Central Texas, including the greater Wichita Falls area

Rotarians are People of Action and this was on fine display recently when they were asked to support Covid-19 related needs in their community. Rotarians in District 5790 (North Central TX) put out the call to Club members and friends and raised $65,000 in just ten days. Contributions came from Rotarians and clubs throughout North Central Texas as well as District 5870 in the Austin area. Our global partner, District 9810 in Australia, remembered our contribution to their wildfire relief fund and donated to our effort as well! Our $65,000 raised was matched by the Rotary International Foundation, becoming $161,000 to benefit healthcare and hunger in our communities!

Local hospitals will receive financial support, funds will be used to purchase personal protective equipment, testing kits, thermometers, hazmat suits, and other consumable medical goods.

Wichita Falls North RC goes virtual

In our first meeting since the Covid 19 lock-down

the Rotary Club of Wichita Falls North has resumed weekly

meetings - at least virtually until it is safe for in-person meetings

PDG Troy gave the club an update about the capabilities of Microsoft Teams. MS Teams is the program that PDG Troy has been using to host the club’s virtual e-meetings. The guest speaker for the meeting was PDG Conrad Heede. PDG Conrad informed us about Rotary Fellowships in general, as well as a somewhat in depth discussion over the Rotary Wine Fellowship. Since the meeting was a virtual e-meeting, no raffle tickets were sold and there was no drawing. Next week, Mayor Stephen Santellana is joining our virtual meeting for an update on our city.
