We recently completed our President's Report which summarizes all the activites our chapter has participated in this past year. So, from this I'll give you some of the highlights from our past year.

On September 24, 2005 we helped out at an International Day Festival at St. Thomas Moore church. We provided activities for children from different ethnic backgrounds at a children's area. The purpose of this festival was to raise funds for a mission in Honduras, and as a chapter we wanted to be exposed to other cultures at this festival.

We held two car washes on August 28, 2005 and January 8, 2006 both to raise funds for our members attending the Global Youth Forum which occurred in November 2005 and to raise funds for our chapter. Both car washes were held at the Delray Beach Wal-Mart.
 

On February 16, 2006 we hosted a Night of 1000 Dinners at the Scanlan home, to support Adopt-A-Minefiled with both fundraising, and raising awareness about the problem of landmines in the world. We raised $160.

We also had a dress down day fundraiser on November 23, 2005 at St. Vincent Ferrer School to raise money for our chapter and we babysat at St. Vincent's St. Patrick's Day Festival from March 3 - 5, 2006, to raise money again. The total amount we raised from the car washes, dress down day, and babysitting fundraisers combined was $1,217.89.

Another activity we participated in was working at the Caring Kitchen in Delray Beach. We prepared food, and cleaned for the kitchen. This occurred on April 23, 2006.

 

People to People International was started by President Dwight D. Eisenhower after World War II to promote international understanding and friendship among peoples of different countries and cultures. It is a nonprofit, non-political, cultural and educational exchange organization.
