ADDED: THU., NOV 7, 2024: Global Empowerment Mission (GEM) responds to natural and manmade disasters all over the world. They host volunteers on a weekly basis at their worldwide headquarters in Doral, Florida. Volunteers pack boxes that support families in the first few days immediately after a disaster. Boxes consist of food, hygiene, socks, and other necessities.
This past Saturday, Hallandale Beach-Aventura Rotary Club President, Evelyn Trinidad-Toraño, volunteered at GEM putting together bags of toiletries for the victims of Hurricane Milton. The goal of that day was to put together more than 3,000+ bags of much-needed necessities.

The Rotary Foundation (TRF) Golf Ball Drop was created in 2013 by Chris Morrison, member and Past President of the Rotary Club of Coral Gables, to raise money to assist in Rotary District 6990 various grant programs.
It is that time of year once more when we come together to honor Chris Morrison for his tremendous support of the Rotary Foundation and to continue on the path he designed!
As always, our district is excited to host an event in memory of Chris Morrison, aimed at raising vital funds for this important cause.
Mark your calendars! The deadline to purchase tickets is December. This is a fantastic opportunity for everyone who wants to contribute and qualify for the Paul Harris Fellow recognition—whether through buying tickets or selling them to friends and family. Those who reach the PHF or the next level will be celebrated before our Paul Harris night!
You can get your physical tickets from our assistant governors and club presidents, or easily purchase them online at the following website.
We have some incredible prizes lined up, so don’t miss out. The closest balls will receive the following winning gifts:
1. 2-night stay Bay Harbor & Coconut Bay Resort, Key Largo

For every four tickets sold, your $100 donation can for instance help provide new water filters capable of purifying over 200,000 gallons of clean, safe drinking water by removing 99.9999% of diseases from contaminated water.
We are counting on you.
