🔨💙 What a fantastic day of service!

This weekend, members of Danville San Ramon Rotary came together to build 8 new benches for the Sunny Glen community. These benches will provide comfortable seating for residents enjoying the bocce ball, horseshoe, and shuffleboard courts behind the clubhouse.

Projects like this are a great reminder of what Rotary is all about – bringing people together to make a positive impact in our community. From assembling and finishing the benches to sharing laughs and fellowship along the way, it was a day well spent.

A special thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and energy:

• Kathy Chiverton (and Ed)
• Glenn Weber (and Elizabeth)
• Leslie Steller
• Laura Daniels
• Terry Church (and Kevin)
• Sunitha Anand (with Anand and Davish)

Another great week at Danville San Ramon Rotary! 💙💛

This week’s meeting was packed with inspiration, impact, and a look ahead at the exciting work still to come.

We celebrated scholarship recipient Elisabeth Lee and recognized her achievements with a $1,500 scholarship. 🎓

We also got a first look at plans for the 2026 Auction for Education, one of the many ways our club supports local students and our community. 🎉

A highlight of the meeting was hearing from Foundation Chair Karen McNamara, who shared the Danville San Ramon Rotary Foundation Annual Report. From grants and scholarships to local and international service projects, it was a powerful reminder of what can be accomplished through the generosity and dedication of our members.

We also heard from a representative of Tri-Valley Haven, one of our grant recipients. Their organization provides critical support and resources to adults and children experiencing domestic violence, sexual assault, and homelessness throughout the Tri-Valley area. Their work is changing lives every day, and we are honored to support their mission. ❤️

And of course, there was plenty of excitement surrounding our raffle jackpot, which climbed above $1,600! Congratulations to Leslie Stellar, this week’s lucky winner. 🎱🎉

Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to help make a difference through service above self.

🧡 Little donations. BIG impact. 🧡

What an incredible show of generosity from our Danville San Ramon Rotary community!

Thanks to the kindness of our members and supporters, our Diaper Drive benefiting the Bay Area Crisis Nursery was a huge success.

Together we collected:
✔️ 37 cases of diapers (approximately 4,000 diapers!)
✔️ 19 cans of formula
✔️ 18 cases of wipes (about 150 packages)
✔️ 20 brand-new toys for children ages 0–8

That adds up to an estimated **$4,000 worth of much-needed supplies** that will help support local families and children in our community. 💙

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated, shared, and supported this effort. Your generosity is helping provide comfort, care, and critical resources to families when they need it most.

This is what *Service Above Self* looks like. 🙌
