WE NEED EVERYONE TO BRING THEIR SOLD RAFFLE STUBS AND MONEY TO THE AUGUST BUSINESS MEETING. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE THESE MONIES WITH YOUR DINNER MEETING CHECK.

FORT LAUDERDALE JR. QUOTA CLUB THE “PEEPS”

The Peeps of our Jr. Quota Club took 80 beautiful stuffed animals which were their own treasurers when they were this age. Each was placed in a gift bag so the children felt they were receiving a very special gift. After the children (pictured above) placed their animals in their “cubbies,” the Peeps read their favorite stories to them from their own toddler books.

The girls were busy this month helping Fort Lauderdale Quotarians with their annual backpack program for God’s Little Lambs, also preparing annual back to school cards for the deaf children at Tamarac Elementary School and the migrant children at Markham Elementary School.

ANNUAL BACKPACK PROGRAM

Pictured right, are Carol Stevens, Executive Director of God’s Little Lambs; Carol Zeber; and South Area Director Sheila Morris.

Fort Lauderdale Quotarians partnered with the Rotary Club of Fort Lauderdale Beach and the Jr. Quota Club “Peeps” this year. The backpacks included shoes, socks, two shirts, pencil boxes, crayons, markers, glue sticks, scissors, pencils, erasers, and pencil sharpeners.
