At the February Stated Meeting, we talked about the Scholarship applications going out to the schools this month. Our primary topic was to discuss whether to include Accredited Trade Schools in the allowed schools. This was a very well received suggestion, so all of our invitations will go out including "show evidence of enrollment in an accredited college, university, or trade school"
We also discussed an opportunity to partner with St. James Episcopal Church to help with their mission to feed the homeless at Austin Street Shelter. There would be a need to provide 4-5 volunteers, once every 3 months. There will be more information on this sent out via email in the next couple of months.
The Garland Masonic Bodies finished up 2022 with a total of 551 units of blood collected. Great job Joe French and all of the volunteers that have helped throughtout the year!
