Grab a drink. Grab a cutting board. We’ve got vegetables to chop!
For Hunger Action Month, we’re turning Sip & Prep into one big prep kitchen for some of Kanbe’s nonprofit partners across Kansas City. They’ll tell us what would be most useful in their kitchens, and we’ll spend the evening sorting, washing, peeling, chopping, and packing fresh vegetables so they’re ready to turn into meals.
Come spend a couple of hours with good people, good music, and probably more onions than you planned on encountering on a weeknight. No kitchen skills required. We’ll have everything you need. You bring yourself and wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little messy.

Save the Date for Thursday, October 1st
For the past seven years, I’ve had the privilege of serving on the Board of Growing Futures Early Education Center, and this year I’m honored to serve as Board President. Growing Futures supports children and families right here in Johnson County through high quality early childhood education and comprehensive family services.
One of my favorite examples of how community connections grow is fellow Rotarian Tom Cohen. I originally met Tom through Growing Futures and later encouraged him to consider joining the Overland Park Rotary Club. He did, and since then, he has become even more involved with Growing Futures! Tom and his wife, Lena Price, are now serving as two of our first Honorary Chairs for Harvesting Hope, committing their time and energy to raising money and awareness for the important work Growing Futures is doing in our local community.
I’d love to have my fellow Rotarians join us for Harvesting Hope on Thursday, October 1, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Strang Hall in Downtown Overland Park. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy an evening together while supporting local children and families.
