    OUTREACH: THE BOARD THOUGHT THAT SINCE WE DID (3) VETERAN OUTREACH EVENTS, THAT WE SHOULD HELP THE CHILDREN IN OUR AREA. INITIALLY WE HAD PLANNED ON PAYING BACK LUNCH DEBTS SO CHILDREN COULD QUALIFY FOR FREE LUNCH. THIS WAS NO LONGER NEEDED. HOWEVER, THEY DID HAVE SCHOOL SUPPLY NEEDS WE COULD HELP WITH. THE CHAPTER PROVIDED COMPUTER MICE, HEADPHONES, COLD CUPS AND GYM EQUIPMENT. OUR BIGGEST SURPRISE WAS THE NEED FOR CLOTHS FOR CHILDREN.OUR DONATION COORDINATOR WENT TO WORK AND FOUND A FULL PICK-UP TRUCK TO HELP OUT THE SCHOOL. OVER THREE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS WERE HELPED OUT.
