Charitable Foundation Donation Request Form	What is the overall status? George is wanting to capture all policies and procedures into a single space.	Icons are missing on this form. The scoring section is good. A place holder is going into the document but we need to finalize our form. 7 Areas (added environment) of focus notation is necessary, we want people to know what Rotary represents. Group will look over the form and we will discuss via email and try to complete.

Meals of Hope	Need to raise around $2500, looking at model from Florida for social distancing. Will revisit timing (due to virus) but looking at early spring dates.	Feb/Mar time line, Elks would be good, 2 shifts, follow Florida model for social distancing. Deb will promote once we have a date, club email to raise $. Talk to other clubs. This will be further discussed at board meeting Wed.	Etienne	Early Spring

WBR Stamp	May need to start from scratch	West Bay Rotary and the Wheel, Sandy to resend email to Trina, will look at pricing.	Trina
Trailer Signage	Looks like we will place this on hold, lots of great conversation about what we think we need. How is the trailer filling party going?	General notes were that the signage should be simple, mostly Rotary wheel and West Bay name. ‘Service above self’ line might be added. And maybe magnetic tags as well.	Sandy/Tim
Pandemic Winter	Request for shelter is on the rise, food pantries are started to feel the stress. Can we team up with other Rotaries to look at a local assist. Meals on Wheels is one thought, looking at the social contact for those who are alone.	Think outside of the box on how to work with other groups, working together to make an impact. Food needs seems ok right now, New Hope is working with Homeless Coalition, Counseling services getting involved as well. Specific needs have not been identified yet. Anticipate the need will increase over the winter. Keep your eyes open for opportunities! John will keep us up to date on what needs are being identified. Rapid Response monies being available. Let’s keep this on our community radar!	John V	ongoing
