Program for Tuesday, September 2, 2014
The speaker for September 2, 2014 will be Jaqueline Aranda. She will be bringing us an update on Fresh Start Surgical gifts. We currently have a District Grant in the works for Fresh Start that could use a little push from our club. Please come and learn more about the miracles the Fresh Start program provides to children who suffer from disfiguring afflictions like severe burns and cleft palates.
Reminder: Sponsor information for sponsorships over $1000 are due on Sept 3 so that the logos can be collected in time to be included in all of the ad pieces we wil have for the festival

PDG Larry Sundram reports via District 5340's FaceBook page that our district has the great honor to be the #1 district in the world in contributions to Polio Plus. The chart at left lists the top 20 districts and their contributions to Polio Plus. RB Sunrise help this effort with member contributions.
Although the motivation to raise funds for Polio Plus was not to earn any awards, it is great to see that the efforts of District 5340 Rotarians are in the forefront of the Polio Eradicaton efforts in the entire Rotary World. Our district is making a difference in the world and this news is evidence of that.
This information is a verification of our own view about what a fantastic district we really have here in San Diego. The district is great because of all of you. Celebrate!
