Weekly Update--April 7, 2019
Hope everyone is having a great weekend. This Tuesday is our April Business Meeting and we have 8 new members to initiate. I hope everyone can join us and welcome them to the BEST Altrusa Club in the world.
We will also vote for our delegates to the International Convention that will be held in Reno this summer.
Below you will find the April Treasurer Report, along with Minutes from the March Meetings.
At the meeting, we will have the Ad Hoc Committee present their recommendations for the Scholarship Guidelines & Fiscal Policy. The recommendations are below under the Download Files section for you to review before the meeting.

Thanks for all you do for Altrusa Temple--and 'Serving through the Seasons'.
 
'Give More Hugs'
Here are a few pictures of the elves that handed out the books at Raye-Allen. It was a wonderful afternoon to give these students and teachers books that they could take home. We definitely had many smiles with this project. Thanks to everyone as Altrusa Temple gives out more books this year. Can you believe we have donated over 700 books this year with our literacy projects and we still have more to give. 
 
Wear Blue Day- Human Trafficking Awareness
From Susan Cory-----and I really like this idea since we have done  projects and we are aware of this issue in our community---please wear Blue at our next meeting & we can participate in the Awareness Day for Human Trafficking.
 
Wear Blue Day for our mtg on January 8th & then post pics on January 11th.
 
Save the Date: January 11 is #WearBlueDay
Who: You and your friends, family, colleagues, and community.
What: #WearBlueDay is a one-day hashtag event to raise awareness of human trafficking. Take a photo of yourself and others wearing blue and post it on social media using #WearBlueDay.
When: All day Friday, January 11, 2019.
Where: On social media: Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
Why: Human trafficking happens year-round and #WearBlueDay creates a one-day flood of social media content to raise awareness of the crime.
