The Rotary Club of Etobicoke is celebrating Rotary's EPIC Day of Service with 2 new Hands On projects.
Here is Lynda's Story:
I was contacted by Chef Keith Hoare, former and still active supporting chef at Thistletown C.I.
With the agreement of incoming Thistletown Chef Tawfik Shehata, Keith suggested that Thistletown culinary students along with him and Tawfik would like to do a sandwich project with our club.
Thistletown has a donation of frozen meat. Ham, Chicken and Baloney Keith and his culinary students would join with us in making 300 sandwiches.
We have agreed on Rotary Etobicoke's Hands On providing 35 loaves of bread and sandwiches bags. I can get the bread and sandwich bags. Thistletown would provide the meat, mayo and mustard.
The project would start at 9 a.m on Tuesday, May 12 and probably be finished by 10.30/11.00. I am hoping to provide the 300 sandwiches to Na Me RES - an Indigenous Men's Shelter in Toronto.
Samantha will take the sandwiches and deliver them to Na Me Res on May 12.
The other - Epic Day of Service will be sorting clothing and making food for the Scott Mission in Rexdale. We will be preparing the meals that will be transferred downtown.
So, that would be two "new" Hand's On projects which we are labelling as Days of Service in the same week.
