 A short visit with owner, Norma Carlini, uncovered common philanthropic interests.  The Salon has been focused on helping H.O.M.E. - Hands of Mercy Everywhere, providing a very special home for young women, pregnant women and young mothers.  Norma and Melissa Fulwider, Salon Manager, are organizing a drop box in the salon to collect feminine hygiene products as part of the Rotary Food Drive Jan 9.  Thank You!

The SEWING STUDIO

Catherine Conti operates the Sewing Studio in Lady Lake.  She had not partnered for a cause before however the Rotary Baby Shower sounded like a good fit for her and her customers.  The Sewing Studio, along with three of our other business collaborators, sponsored a baby playpen.  It was displayed at the store for the month of April   Then April 26 our club held a drive through Rotary Baby Shower and area residents filled the baby play pens with baby essentials.  Thank you Sewing Studio for taking a chance on this project...we collected over 40 handmade baby blankets and 4 organizations have supplies for helping new moms and babies.
