We explored new literacy initiatives and participation in the "Get Paulding Reading" program. We already have some enthusiastic volunteers. Including one of our newest members, Sandy Ransom, is leading this effort for our club.

Immediate Past President Jeb wasn't here today so Roy Strickland accepted Foundation recognition banners from DG Mary Ligon. Paulding County Rotary is a 100% Sustaining Member Club with every member gifting at least $100 to the Annual Fund. DG Mary delivered both "Every Rotarian Every Year Club" and "100% Foundation Giving Club" banners.
The Paulding County Rotary contribution towards the USO holiday block leave was greatly appreciated. Combined with other donations from various companies and organizations, we were able to feed approx 8,000 soldiers returning to Fort Benning from holiday leave.
It is great to work with our local non-profits. Yesterday, Brent Wheeling and I were privileged to present a donation to Linda Verscharen with the Family Alliance of Paulding. We thank them for all their hard work and dedication. I speak on behalf of the Rotary Club of Paulding County when I say it is an honor to serve.
