Last Sunday's presentation for Anchor Place Respite-Dunwoody attracted nearly 70 people - including these members of the Dunwoody family: Dick Game, Charlie and Anita Augello, George and Amy Stewart, Anne Glenn, Jennifer Shumway, Dottie and Griff Ransom, Hoshi and Baku Daruwalla, Bob and Andrea O'Brien, Ron and Louise Barden, and Kathy Brandt.
We are excited about the opportunities for us to get involved with Anchor Place Respite - Dunwoody, as volunteers and through our contributions. As we mentioned in Friday's club meeting, we are pursuing a grant through The Rotary Foundation to expand these important efforts in our community. Watch for lots more news!
