Howdy from Hank!
"The following are two emails: One from Allan and one from Tara, as well as attachments outlining a fundraiser for Nepal that our RC is supporting. This email follows up on a presentation Tara gave to the club on Tuesday.
It should be noted that we had previously announced a donation of $5,000 in relation to Shelter Boxes' support in Nepal; there is no funding being provided to this specific fundraiser."

"Hi Hank,
Tara and our international committee are putting together a fundraiser in conjunction with Tara's restaurant to raise more funds for Nepal.
Chrystal and I met with Tara and Chef G today to review some of the logistics and challenges of putting this event together for Saturday, Oct 3rd.
We are raising additional funds for Shelter Box, and all donations will come from corporate sponsors or personal donations made directly to Shelter Box in support of this event.
Tara and Chrystal will update the club on Tuesday with more details on the project , and we will be looking for volunteers to help on the day of the event.
The club will not be required to contribute additional funding to Shelter Box, but we would like board approval to support this project and allow us to attach the Rotary Logo. Do we need board approval if the club isn't making any financial commitment?
Tara will be in Nepal for a couple of months (mid Oct - Nov)
Our ask is that we would like to put our Cochrane Rotary logo on the project along with AAMA.
Tara has already spoken with Glen and Kelly Kimmett to get ideas to help pull this fundraiser off in 3 weeks.
Thanks
Allan"
