Neema House
Sep. 27, 2016
Neema House, a 501(c)3 organization in the USA and an NGO in Tanzania, operates in the city of Arusha, Tanzania, and is a rescue center for orphaned, abandoned and at-risk babies. It is currently operating at over capacity with forty-six babies receiving in-house care, as of January 16, 2016. The number of babies needing help far exceeds the current facilities and resources of Neema House. Babies come to Neema when hospitals and police stations call asking for help with babies who have been abandoned or orphaned. Babies have been left on the roadside, on porches, in yards, left alone in houses and even in latrines. At Neema House they have all found love and care. |

Last Saturday (Bookcase Workday #1) held at Barb Pearcy's in Morgan's Point was a terrific start on making bookcases for The Well at Feed My Sheep. Nine Altrusans and one cheerful, helpful spouse arrived full of willingness and determination to get the job underway! Our fearless co-chair Angela Cases lead us through the process. Pallets were broken down, as needed, and the sanding began! This Saturday, October 1st, we plan to meet and make even more progress. We would love to have more people join us this weekend. No registration this time - just come by if you can - for as long as you can - some of us have to leave a little early for kid's sports. Did I mention we have kolaches? In addition to the bookcases, we have more Bedtime Bags for HOPE Pregnancy to be stringed. You could bring a lawn chair, sit and string some bags and cheer on the construction workers. Directions From Temple - come West on 2305 (Adams), Turn right on 317 Travel to FM 2483 (at flashing light) turn left Proceed to Lake Forest (at water tower) turn right Go to stop sign and turn left on Stirrup Drive, proceed to 50 Stirrup If gate is closed call 598-9983

It's time again to test your natural talent! You pick whether that's talent for painting or talent for enjoying wine. We'll be doing both on Thursday, October 27th at this Club Social. Plan to come and bring a friend! As yearly dues are about to be cut in half, now is a great time to encourage that friend who's been on the fence about joining! Or take the time to invite that friend you keep thinking about asking! To Register go to this link: http://www.paintingwithatwist.com/events/viewEvent.aspx?eventID=908704​ and use the password "ALTRUSA". You must register and pay on the Painting With a Twist website at the link provided above. A reservation only through Clubrunner will not save your spot. We will be painting "If the Shoe Fits..." Thanks goes to Tammy Bennett, who is our event chair, and she is planning to bring a special fall drink for all to try. Of course, bring something else to share (food and/or drink) and we'll have fun painting! See you then! |

I am the chair of this project, however, I have tickets to go out of town on Saturday. So I could use a few volunteers to help Marsha at the Mrs. Claus booth on Saturday. The doors open Saturday, Dec 3 at 8:30 a.m., so the first volunteers please arrive by 8:00 a.m. Check in at the Volunteer Desk for ‘Ms. Claus Booth #42’. In the past, the children signed a guest book then climbed the stairs to sit and visit with Ms. Claus. Many of the parents want pictures so we can offer to take those. The main responsibilities of volunteer Altrusans are to visit with the children waiting in line, assist them in signing the guest book (they use a giant pencil that is rather difficult to use), and maneuver the stairs. We need at least one volunteer helping Marsha during the day on Saturday. The doors will close at 5:00 p.m. Altrusans will then undecorate the booth and reflect on yet another wonderful, completed project ;-) |

We Need Your Help!! We are meeting at Wildflower Country Club in the back room of the restaurant (Doc's Lounge). Thursday night is Pasta Night (of your choice). You are welcome to dine, eat from the salad bar, or have a glass of your favorite vino! We are in need of non experienced pattern cutters, so if you have a pair of scissors, please bring along. We will have several other items on the table to do if cutting is not your forte. It's a great time to socialize, hear jokes or mingle with your Altrusa buddies. Hope to see you then!

Canstruction is an event to bring awareness to hunger in Bell County. Teams will create sculptures made of thousands of cans of food. The sculptures are creative and often engineering marvels! The Expo Center will be open to the public to view the entries and to vote on favorites. Tens of thousands of cans will be used in the sculptures and all of this canned food will be donated to Helping Hands Food Pantry. Altrusa is partnering with First United Methodist Church of Belton to enter the event. On Friday, January 27th, cans will be delivered to the Expo Center and the timed construction of the sculptures will take place. On Saturday, the Expo Center will be open to the public and an Awards Ceremony will be held that evening. First practice is Thursday, Jan. 12, 3-5 p.m. at Barb's Barn, 50 Stirrup Dr. Morgan's Point. Watch for future practice dates. Next practice is Saturday, 9-1 at Barb's barn.

Join your fellow Altrusans for a fun social evening at the home of Michelle and Bill DiGaetano. It's going to be a pizza party DiGaetano style. Classy and fun! :) We're going to be making pizzas while making more memories with our Altrusa friends. All pizza fixings will be provided but there will be a sign up for additional items like salad, desserts, drinks and appetizers. If you're able to bring something, please sign up to do so, but if not, just bring yourself and a smile. This social is open to guests as well if you'd like to bring a potential Altrusan to meet our fabulous club members. Looking forward to seeing you there! |
