AUBURN — On behalf of Lewiston-Auburn Lunch Club Rotarians, L-A Rotary Club President Monica Millhime — along with Belinda Vallee and Rotarians Cheryl McKeone and Tom MacDonald — presented a $2,000 check to Peter Baker, representing the Alzheimer’s Association Maine Chapter.
“Thank you for your $2,000 contribution to the Alzheimer’s Association, Maine Chapter,” said Laurie Trenholm, Alzheimer’s Association executive director.
“Your support will provide immediate assistance to the people in Maine affected by Alzheimer’s disease, their families and caregivers.” The Alzheimer’s Association 24/7 helpline is 800-272-3900.
The donation was made possible through the sales and support of the Rotary Community Cookbook. Fellow first year Rotarian Lorraine Bard championed and complied the cookbook on behalf of the club.
“On behalf of the Lewiston-Auburn Rotary Club, we wish to express our gratitude to all of our past and present Rotarians, families and friends who shared their culinary delights,” Millhime said. “Our heart and thoughts go out to those afflicted with this debilitating disease and hope a cure will be discovered soon.”
A limited number of cookbooks are still available at two convenient locations in Auburn at Ann’s Flower Shop, 36 Millet Drive, and The Village Inn, 165 High St.
The L- A Rotary Club meets every Thursday at the Village Inn from noon to 1 p.m. Reservations are not required at the luncheon.
