Toronto (March 31, 2020) – The kids are at home from school and so many parents are struggling to keep them entertained. Under normal circumstances, parents enjoying spending time with their kids on weekends, planning family outings, projects and gatherings that make the weekends whiz by. During this pandemic, parents are working from home and already stressed about the situation, trying to keep their kids busy all day, every day is a daily challenge. The Toronto East Rotary club is trying to provide a helping hand with both an educational and entertaining interactive literacy program. The Free Reading Program (FRP) is an effective online literacy program for early readers and English Language Learners around the world. The FRP provides a robust Kindergarten to grade 6 level Reading program and includes over 3,600 interactive reading, spelling and grammar lessons. Children use a computer or tablet, that they are already so comfortable using, to learn in a fun way. It becomes like a game! The parents are able to track their progress and see areas where they excel and where they need more work. Parents report that it has even helped children with autism and dyslexia. For a number of years, Toronto East Rotary has been a proud sponsor of the Free Reading Program (FRP) FreeReadingProgram.com. It's available at no charge to anyone with an internet connection and a computer or tablet. They are encouraging all parents to log on and help their kids learn in a fun and interactive way.

Three years ago Toronto East Rotarian Joe Runza came up with the idea that he would skate to raise money for institutions that recently had provided excellent care for friends and family dealing with cancer. Michael Garron Hospital was one of those great organizations. As a result of his efforts, he raised over $7k. Last year, Jim Anastasiadas (Toronto East President Elect) joined Joe in the rink and bumped that up to around $9k. This year they really amped their efforts. The Toronto East Rotary Club raised an incredible $20k with help from Jim who found an anonymous benefactor and Joe who brought in 50 sponsors. With a matching grant from the Moffat Family Foundation, the total amount raised came to $40k!

What a terrific day it was yesterday at our 10th, yes our 10th, Annual Arts and Crafts Sale. Who could ask for a better team - Toronto East Rotarians, family and friends working together to create a wonderful community event that raised funds to support Out of the Cold at Eastminster and a number of other projects in Toronto East. As always, the artisans were impressive. Many thanks to them and to everyone else who supported the Sale - our financial donors, our advertisers, our promoters, our bakers and chili makers, our graphic designer, our face painter, our musicians and our attendees. The Toronto East Rotary team demonstrated the power of working together. Thank you to all. For pictures of the event please see the album here.

Thanks to Al Munn, Joe Runza, Virginia O'Reilly, Hugh Stuart and Karen Somerville for participating at our table, underneath our beautiful TERC tent. We engaged lots of families and children - passed out lots of information about TERC.

 Recently, Marvin Prashad told us his inspiring story. As a teen he fled the United States in search of a way out of poverty with criminal elements trying to pull him down. Marvin told us of his journey from abuse and poverty to successful business owner and through strength, determination and iron will, he built a life for himself in Toronto against all odds. Today Marvin is husband, father and the owner, operator and head instructor at Dragonz Martial Arts Studio and an active member of the East Toronto Community. Thank you for sharing!

 Victor Lal, a student at Western University, came and talked to us today (2017-1012) about his Ride for Syrian Refugees – see canadiansforsyria.org. He spent part of his summer raising $30,000 for a Syrian family which is presently residing in Jordan and expected to arrive in Canada later this year. Victor rode his bike from Toronto to St. John’s, Newfoundland, over 2,500 kilometres. He had some interesting stories to tell about his ride, including the generosity of people he met along the way. Last year, Toronto East Rotary Club supported a number of initiatives related to the Syrian refugee crisis and was pleased to support Victor in his fundraising efforts with a cheque for $1,000. Thanks to Victor for his demonstration of “Service above Self”.

 Malcolm Lamont [here being thanked by Rotarian Robert Payne] was our guest speaker at last week's luncheon. Malcolm has always been intrigued by wine, and after taking his first course in oenology fell in love with the wide world of wine study. That led him to complete a Sommelier Certification at Algonquin College, as well as the Certified Specialist of Wine credential with the Society of Wine Educators. Malcolm entertained and informed us about the world of wine. To find out more about his company visit IWEG.org.

 The Trustees of The Rotary Foundation recently confirmed the award of two District 7070 Global Grant Scholarships for the 2017-2018 academic year.
One of the recipients is Spencer McMurray, sponsored by the Toronto East Rotary Club and a graduate of University of Toronto where he received his Honours Bachelor of Arts in Peace, Conflict, and Justice, minor in Political Science. Spencer will pursue a Masters of International Security, with a concentration in conflict resolution and a regional concentration on the Middle East, and the study of Arabic at the Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA) at Sciences Po, in Paris, France.

The $2000.00 TERC Community Service Scholarship Award was presented to Sal Sabila of Monarch Park CI (shown on the left) and Cathy Nabukalu of St. Patrick Catholic SS. Sal pioneered efforts at her school for Gender Equality and Mental Wellness and founded the Youth Gravity team in Regent Park.

Cathy, in addition to a long list of community service activities both in and out of school, was selected to take a leadership role in the Toronto Police Youth Community Program deployed to the Dovercourt Boys and Girls Club. She is enrolled at the University of Windsor to study Forensic Psychology and Criminology. Both students delivered inspiring speeches detailing their contributions and confirming their on-going commitment to volunteer community service.

Left to Right: Club President Jim Crimedas, Pastor Tim Reimer, Rev. Sarah Miller, Rabbi Mariam Margles, Rev. Jim Parker. At our lunch on May 4th, 2017, we listened intently to the thoughts of four religious leaders in the Toronto East community and were left with a special thought from each. The broad societal issues that were raised by the religious leaders and where, we as a Club, can continue to contribute, are: Poverty, housing for the marginalized, homelessness, hunger and food security, clean water, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, welcoming spaces for the transgender and LGBTQ community, safe havens for youth, mental health, individual isolation, refugee sponsorship and Indigenous rights.

In February of 2016, in cooperation with the Toronto Kiwanis Boys and Girls Clubs, young Blackball participants performed live and un-automated before their peers and family members. To date, some 70 youth and children have taken part in the Blackball project. And there are more sites, more clients and more awe-inspiring electronic sounds yet to come.
