DESCRIPTION:The regular End of March Meeting which again will be virtual. Z
 oom Link to follow. With 2 Guest Speakers - see below for details A simple
  basket of buns is something we take for granted on the lunch or dinner ta
 ble\, but there are many areas of the world where this is not true\, and t
 his simple basket of bread would be seen as a gift for families that are s
 tarving.  A small amount of money like $2.50 also seems insignificant to 
 us who are fortunate to live in Canada but again that $2.50 can do so much
  in starving communities\, without the simple things is life like clean wa
 ter\, shelter and bread. For this meeting we challenge the team to simply
  donate the value of the Buns they would have eaten at a real lunch.  S
 o for this month its an easy $2.50 donation that again will go to the Ro
 tary Foundation. Speakers for this session: 1) Our own Rotarian Allie Blad
 es on Equal Voice and BC Leadership 2) Joey Cheung from Villa Cathay senio
 rs home Villa Cathay Care Home is the first non-profit care home in Vancou
 ver that serve Chinese seniors whose medical needs can no longer be met at
  home. Villa Cathay Care Home is a registered charitable organization in V
 ancouver (119285971RR0001) and can only rely on government loan and commun
 ity fundraising to complete this $72.9M rejuvenation project. Currently\, 
 we are raising the final $2M to complete this project\, and I am reaching 
 out to see if any Rotary Clubs can donate and support Villa Cathay. The co
 mpletion of the Villa Cathay Care Home Rejuvenation Project will build a n
 ew complex care home with 224 beds where all residents will have their own
  individual private en-suite rooms with private bathrooms and showers\, ma
 ximizing residents’ comfort\, privacy and dignity. Residents only need t
 o pay between $1K to $3K per month to receive 24 hour care (inclusive of a
 ll fees) in the new Villa Cathay Care Home.
