Today was the Chikumbuso Annual 10K/5K Run or Walk at the North Stonington Grange. The "Westerly Rotarian" team - real troopers!!! - Pat Grande, Kathryn Taylor and Cal Lord are pictured above. Rona Mann also completed the walk. Kudos to you all and we hope that you enjoyed some Ben & Jerry's for all of us!!
Just received a thank you note from Linda Wilkinson, the founder of Chikumbuso. She said, "A big thank you to each one of you who participated in our Chikumbuso Challenge this year! We were able to raise about $6,000 of our $15,000 annual lunch program budget! We are well on our way to continuing our feeding program for 500 students every day. We appreciate your generosity of both time and giving!" Her note included a quote from Denzel Washington - "At the end of the day it's not about what you have or even what you've accomplished...it's about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It's about what you've given back."
