Ryan Childers President 2012-2013 Celebrate Rotary Number 21 for the Week of December 6, 2012
Reverend Ron introduced our guest
speaker, Tina Husse from the Depart-
ment of Social Services. Tina works
for the division of Child Protective
Services and was a colleague of Lau-
rie Van Der Griff. The CPS each
year to honor Laurie, has a Christ-
mas Toy drive. The department
hosts a Christmas celebration for 200
children ages 1 to 18 and provides toy’s or clothes for
them. Tina came to ask the help of Rotarians for dona-
tion of toy, etc. These
items need to be un-
wrapped and can be
dropped off at Social
Services, Suite#101.
Help bring some joy to
these youngsters who
are in the care of CPS
and live in a foster
home.
