August 2, 2024 York Rotary Meeting included inducting 2 new members. Suyanti Gerry and Aaron Gilman shown here with Susan Gross, Membership Chair and Jud Knox current President. Welcome aboard and thank you for helping us Create Hope in the World!
Next, we held our July Car with a Cause Early Bird Drawing, with the help of our guest speaker, Cara Valentino. July's $250 winner is lucky ticket # 302, owned by R. DeFeo. And as always, the ticket goes back in, and could potentially be the winner of the car!
Finally, our guest speaker was Cara Valentino, CEO & President of the Dempsey Cen.ter Organization. What is The Dempsey Center Organization?
After watching his mother’s journey with ovarian cancer, actor and Maine native Patrick Dempsey wanted to make a space where those impacted by cancer could find relief, comfort, and resources. The Dempsey Center opened its doors in 2008 and today provides care and support to hundreds of individuals and their families. The Dempsey Center provides personalized and comprehensive cancer care at no cost.
