Earlier this month, Robin & Ed Charlesworth, Isis Mejias, Wind Nguyen, Margarita Hernandez, & Leenette Wilke met for an e-Club face-to-face social at Houston's Mi Pueblito Restaurant. Hope you can make it to our next face-to-face!
This is a story about a Venezuelan family that benefited from our project “Hope for Venezuelan Refugees”. The mother was interviewed by our Photojournalist on the ground, who also took the shots that were sent to Rise Against Hunger (RAH). RAH then wrote this beautiful blog post on their website.
Congratulations to Isis Mejias, e-Club President Elect for 2020-21, who attended the Rotary President Elects Training Seminar earlier this month! Isis says, "I am inspired by the many avenues that this organization offers to do humanitarian service." She looks forward to meeting with e-Club members and asking WHY are you in Rotary? What moves you to do humanitarian service?
Thank you Wind for giving us a tour of your beautiful and unique houseplants! For our monthly e-Club social meeting, Wind discussed the philosophy of plants, understanding your plant's needs, adapting your plants to your home, care and love, and recommend plant products.
Dear Rotarians, I encourage you to watch this beautiful video published by Voice of America (VOA). I was thrilled to receive a call from VOA requesting the recommendation of a project serving the Venezuelan refugee and migrant population led by local humble women to highlight their story during the International Women's Day week celebration. And, what better example than the joint work of Mrs. Rosalba and her family, her volunteers, and Sister Ney María in the Olla Comunitaria in Cúcuta. The result? This beautiful and motivating story about the work of these extraordinary women and their service to humanity. Our work has not only contributed to this humanitarian crisis by providing food, but we have also helped raise awareness of the brave people, organizations, and projects that work very hard to contribute to improving the condition of the migrant population.

Five indigenous people waiting for medical treatment and surgery received new mattresses to help them be more comfortable while being treated. The mattresses are covered with heavy-duty, but soft, waterproof material to protect them from dust and facilitate their maintenance and hygiene. Thanks to our allies of Carpa Esperanza for coordinating the logistics and delivery of the mattresses. The distribution of the pillows covered with the same material is scheduled for tomorrow. We extend our most sincere appreciation to our donor for making it possible for us to contribute to improving the living conditions of these patients. Cristal Montanez
