Phillies Game for "Feed the Hungry" campaign - Tuesday, August 8th
 
We would like to purchase 20 tickets in bulk to get a discount for the game but need to know if we can get 20 people signed up.  Who wants to go?  Please reply back to this email.
 
The Phillies will donate approx. 50% of the Ticket Price to the RI Foundation for every ticket sold by
Rotarians. Each Club will get Foundation credits for every dollar donated from their ticket sales.
 
The money will be contributed in your Club’s name and your Club will receive acknowledgment from the RI Foundation in that amount. Clubs can elect to have the money go to Annual Giving or PolioPlus.
 
Also, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will donate $2 dollars for every $1 contributed to PolioPlus.

Strike-Out Hunger is a Regional event spearheaded by the Garden State of Cherry Hill Rotary Club in District 7505 and in conjunction with over 200 Rotary Clubs in five Districts from PA, NJ, DE and MD.
 
The success the National League Champion Phillies had last year, has made seating for games in most sections, very limited. Because of their commitment to Rotary, we will have blocks of good seats available. I urge you to get your
orders in early.
 
We ask everyone attending the game to bring non-perishable food and deposit it in the drums at
the ball park entrance for distribution to local food banks. 
 
Reserved areas for Rotarians, Family and Friends at the game. We are looking at OUTFIELD Seat Level in Section 145, 146 for $43.00 per ticket.  The Phillies will donate 50% to the Rotary International Foundation in our Club's Name.  The Foundation is how we receive District Designated GRANTS, like the one we received for the Boys & Girls Club Playground. 
 
 
 
 
Strike Out Hunger Dinner - Wednesday, August 9th
 
We are reserving two (2) tables of 10 for a discount of $425.00 per table for the event. The club will front the funds for the tables. 
 
First come first serve otherwise the price per person is $45.00.  Each attendee that commits to the event will reimburse the club for their dinner by check or cash.  We will try to set up carpooling if necessary. The attire is casual!
 
The flyer below provides the details about the date, time, and location.  The Rotary International Incoming President, Stephanie Urchick, pictured in the Phillies hat below, will be attending for group pictures with our club, and to have a chat. 
 
We are very excited for our members to hear about Rotary's Service in Action as we hear RIPE Stephanie as our Guest Speaker for the evening. Please reach out to Melanie Druziako at (609) 774-3671 by Monday, July 24th. 
 
 
 
 
 
Last Week's Speakers - No2o.org
No2o.org, a Charitable Organization created by Deborah Bruno and Christine Bertman were our speakers on Tuesday, July 18th.  Their stories about family members and friends who lost their lives to addition were so tragic.  The organization is a grassroots Charity right here in one of our local communities, and we are certain that they will do great things to save lives.
