DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS

  1.   In celebration of our 25th year anniversary, Homes and Land gave the East Cape Guild our first large donation of the season. In addition, Homes and Land will give the Guild a % of sales on every listed home sold. The continued support from our community is vital for our children facing hardships – helping to provide them with, education, uniforms, transportation, educational materials and so much more. Thank you – Kim Bolin and Carlene Lokey – Homes and Land Team. Giving Tuesday may be over, but we invite the community to continue making a impact in the education for thousands of children in the East Cape. A big shout out to the Guild for 25 years of giving scholarships! – kaplotkin@aol.com
  2. Who loves this place? Of course we all do and for a myriad of reasons. It’s important to reflect on that and it’s natural that many of us want to give back to the community that has given us so much joy. That’s why Leaders2Give was formed. It’s a California registered 501(c)(3) non profit, however, it does most of its work right here in this community. It’s grown over the years and has partnered with other initiatives in this community both long standing and short lived emergency responses. Leaders2Give is at a point where we really need to nail down our mission and vision and we need your help. Whether you’ve heard of this nonprofit or not, please provide your feedback by filling out our survey and telling us what’s important to you… what we need to consider. Leaders2Give is holding a 2 day, immersive, in-person retreat in Los Barriles this week with the whole Board of Directors where your input will be considered to help steer this growing nonprofit into the future of giving back to the East Cape community. Please visit https://jpvk50lesiu.typeform.com/to/G0ShVmGA to fill out the survey. Your help is greatly appreciated! – info@leaders2inspire.com
  3. All the time slots are taken! If you really want to go on the ATV Rock ‘n’ Roll Fun Ride for charity, but you didn’t form a group or register before all the time slots were taken, your best chance is to ask around your friends and see if you can join their group for “The most fun you’ll ever have with your ATV”
