Hurricane Harvey and the Flooding
Our Governor Linda Moore has sent notice out to all Presidents to see if any Altrusans and their families have been directly hit by Hurricane Harvey or it's wrath of flooding.  If you know of any, please let Linda know.  The District will be submitting a request for an immediate grant for disaster relief funds from the International Foundation. 
 
What we can do locally is donate to the Vista Community Church.  Check their website at  (www.thevista.tv/Harvey) for an updated list of the items needed.  As of Monday evening, they have all they need in way of clothing and basic hygiene items.  They could use basic first aid kits, infant medications, diaper rash cream soy infant formula, diapers (size 6 and newborn), pull-ups (size 2T, 3T and 4T), and facial tissue.
 
If you have an idea or thought of a District Wide service project to help these victims, please contact Governor Linda Moore.
 
Please keep these families in your prayers for the next several weeks as the cleanup gets started.
 
Altrusans Welcome Kids Back to Hector Garcia Elementary School
Altrusans joined local firemen, karate teachers, Army soldiers, moms, dads, and grandparents in welcoming K-5th graders to their first day of school this morning at Hector P. Garcia Elementary.  It was so fun and refreshing to see these kids so excited to get back to school! Most of them anyway, there were a few that were a little intimidated to come through the welcome line without a few tears.
