Rotary of GB Sunrise's 4th Annual Cigar Nights: May 17th at Pelican Bay Canal House



Dear Friends,
As many of you may know I am the President Elect of The Rotary Club of GB Sunrise on Grand Bahama Island. One of our Rotary club projects that I am very passionate about is the Columbus House Big Brother Big Sister Youth Mentoring Program for abandoned, abused children.



We have made great strides with these children and we continue to give these kids help throughout the year with your continued support.
 
Our annual fundraiser to benefit Columbus House Big Brother Big Sister Program is CIGAR NIGHTS  May 17th at Pelican Bay, Canal House and I ask you to please come out have fun and support the Big Brother Big Sister Program and our other community projects.
