Malmborg’s, Poinsettias and Rotary
Maple Grove Rotary and Rogers Rotary combine a weekly meeting at Malmborg’s Garden Center for fellowship, fun and poinsettias! Malmborg’s offers fundraising opportunities for groups or organizations to pre-sell poinsettias to family, friends and neighbors; so you only pay for poinsettias you have already sold! After delivering beautiful, Malmborg’s grown poinsettias, your group keeps the profits from the sales. For fundraiser information, please contact Van Cooley at 763.242.4343 or van@geraniumsbygeorge.com
Warm Hands, Warm Hearts to Rogers Elementary Schools
Rogers Rotary Club participates in Warm Hands, Warm Hearts and donates hats and mittens to Rogers Elementary Schools. Warm Hands, Warm Hearts was founded by Paige Kassner in NE Wisconsin in 2008 at just 16 years old. Paige founded this organization after her grandfather, suffering from Lou Gehrig’s Disease told her that no matter how small she was, she can make a difference. Paige remembers his kindness, the power of courage and, of course, the importance of giving to others. With Warm Hands, Warm Hearts Paige hopes to encourage others the same way her grandfather encouraged her. To learn more about Paige and Warm Hands, Warm Hearts click here.

Students Connecting Through International Service
Tammie Epley 
of Students Connecting Through International Service spoke with Rogers Rotary. An important six-school program helps 5th graders lead school supply drives and then deliver the supplies directly to Mexican students. These Mexican children are required to provide their own school supplies to attend school, and most can’t, so the MN kids are making it possible for the Mexican students to get an education. The MN students benefit too! They learn about another culture, gain a deeper appreciation for their own schools and communities, and find out first-hand that their individual efforts can make a real difference in the world. After the trip, they share this knowledge, through video, pictures, and stories, with each of their schools and communities We think this program is helping all of the students to progress towards becoming successful, contributing global citizens.
