Glandorf Elementary JEDI/Early Act Club members recently participated in an international service project. JEDI/Early Act is a club open to seventh and eighth grade students and affiliated with Ottawa-Glandorf Rotary Club. This spring the students participated in a series of meetings to learn about Rotary and hear from Mark and Pam Macke, Pandora, who are active volunteers with the group Mission Possible based in Findlay. The students then hosted “Shorts For Haiti” for their entire school.

      Students who donated $1 to the fundraiser could wear shorts to school two weeks earlier than normal. The project raised $469. The JEDI/Early Act members presented the check to Mission Possible during the June 2nd OG Rotary Club meeting.

      Pictured are (sitting, l-r) Matt Warnecke, Bryant Diemer, Logan Meyer and Drew Schierloh; and (standing, l-r) OG Rotary president Tony Hovest, Amy Schmiedebusch, Derek Ebbeskotte, Mission Possible volunteer Pam Macke, and JEDI/Early Act advisor Renee Miller. Mission Possible will use the funds to provide hot meals to school children in Haiti. Rotarians Mary Jo Williams and Darla Lammers chaired this project.
