Opportunity to Serve
Help Welcome Global Grant Scholar Hinako Unno

Hinako Unno is our Global Grant Scholar from Japan. She arrives tonight at 9:00 pm (airlines willing) from northern Japan. Hinako will be attending Emory's Rollins School of Public Health to earn her Master's Degree and her special area of interest is Mental Health.

Anne and Clark Glenn will pick her up tonight. She has not been vaccinated against COVID and tested negative yesterday. Since she is not vaccinated, she will be self quarantining in Anne and Clark's basement for seven days. After that we will arrange a vaccination and she moves into her apartment for school on August 7.

As you know, this isn't the way we like to welcome our international students. And to make things even worse, the Glenns will be out of town from Friday morning until Sunday evening to celebrate Good OLD Clark's Birthday with the family. Anne's great friend and neighbor Marcia Sandbach is on alert to help Hinako with anything she immediately needs.

Now, here's our ask of the Rotary Club members if at all possible.

  1. Please send her welcome messages on cards, signs, flowers, etc. Let your imagination roam. You can bring them to Rotary on Friday, mail them to Anne's address (1480 North Springs Drive, Dunwoody 30338) or just drop them off at Anne's front door if you live close enough.
  2. Could you give her a meal and foster her for a day while Anne and Clark are gone? We are asking especially for Friday, Saturday or Sunday. We don't know her food preferences. She will have a fridge, microwave and toaster oven. And all utensils, plates, dishes, etc. need to be disposable. As soon as she arrives we can get her cell phone number and she can communicate directly with you. Again, food can be left at the front door.

Please let Anne know if you can volunteer to help us out - via email at adillardglenn@gmail.com or via mobile at 770-310-0504.

Consider Being a GRSP Host Family - Experience of a Lifetime

For the last two weeks, Jackie Cuthbert has been enjoying a visit from my first ever GRSP student - Gabriella Baron - who arrived in Georgia 20 years ago (family pictured with me above). Today, Gaby and her family live in Jersey City and her mom Carmen lives here in Atlanta. As Jackie's mentioned in last Friday's meeting, Gaby's nine-year old son Adrian said he'd like to join Rotary and help people - how old did you need to be to join? 

All that to say being a GRSP host family is an awesome experience  Jackie has hosted five and still keep in touch with them all. It's an extended family ... and we have the opportunity to instill the spirit of Rotary - fellowship, fun, doing good in the world - in each student we host.

We are looking for one or two Rotarians to be our host family for this year's student - Maro Innocent-Otolo from Nigeria. She will be arriving August 12 at Hartsfield-Jackson and living/studying at Oglethorpe. Like Yemariam, Maro comes to us directly through Oglethorpe as part of the GRSP Direct College Select program we helped pilot two years ago.

Being a host family includes:

  • Helping Maro get settled in Oglethorpe and Atlanta
  • Hosting Maro in your home some weekends and holidays
  • Transportation to some club meetings, service projects and events - and to some GRSP student weekends (or at least to the bus for students)
  • Creating a lifetime relationship with great memories,

Talk to Jackie Cuthbert, Lorri Christopher or Eleni Bafas if you want to know more.

Fellowship Opportunity
Join the Wine Fellowship at the Gutschenritters on August 10

Chris and Jane Gutschenritter will host the next meeting of the Dunwoody Wine Fellowship. Bring your partner and join us from 5:45 to 7:15 pm on August 10. Please bring a summer wine or an appetizer (finger food) to share.

If you're planning to attend, be sure to use this link to register on our website. You can also contact Chris or Jane directly to RSVP.   Space is limited (about 10-12 spots open) so sign up now!
