Meet Our Newest Members

 

Livonia AM Rotary is proud to introduce the  two newest members of our club. Kelly Abdilla (5/3 Bank) and Cory Moore (Metro Agency Insurance). The two were inducted into Rotary today by our Rotary District Governor Paul Sincock. Cory has been a friend of our club for some time and we hoped we'd eventually sign him. Kelly researched service organizations, picked us and immediately launched herself into volunteer service within her first week of visiting our club. We consider ourselves very lucky to have Kelly and Cory as part of our Rotary family!

LAMR visits the Livonia Fire Station

 

Awesome tour of Livonia Fire Station 1 with the Livonia AM Rotary. Thank you for your service! Please support your local fire rescue when they request resources, they are not wasteful and if they ask, they need it. Livonia fire is currently raising funds for new life saving Automatic CPR Devices. These machines are $13,000 each and they currently have 3 of 6 needed. They really save lives.

Numerous members of the Rotary Club of Livonia AM volunteered at Gleaners Community Food Bank. We were among 36 total volunteers that were on hand to help Gleaners fulfill that day's operations. We were organized into an assembly line that sorted 5,600 lbs of apples into family sized bags. Then we filled 400 pantry packs of food to be shipped to area food pantries for distribution to area families. An estimated 14,720 lives will be affected by this effort.
