THREE  WAYS TO GIVE THIS SEASON!
 
We are all blessed this season, so much more so than others. Here’s a few ways to give back, with your time or your money. Choose one, or choose all!
 
1. The Christmas Bureau needs WILLING WORKERS. Select a shift here with fellow Rotarians or any other shift that fits your schedule at JCCB.org and click on VOLUNTEER AT 2021 HOLIDAY SHOP.
2.  The Christmas Bureau also needs money (of course) and supplies! Go to JCCB.org address and click on DONATE. 
 
3.  You’ll hear us say it over and over. And over! Overland Park Rotary supports the Rotary International Foundation and it’s myriad programs that align with our agendas. We wish, we anticipate, and ultimately we expect all OP Rotarians to join hands with a minimum or $100 donation that supports Every Rotarian Every Year.
