A group of Rotary Sunrisers who attended the inaugural Norfolk General Hospital Foundation Fundraising Gala were able to present Emma Rogers, CEO of the Foundation, (pictured fifth from the right) with a $2000 cheque in support of the event. On many occasions the Club has spoken about how some of our members have been able to take dollars and magically make them grow with grants. Well, we managed once again to make our money grow. The $2000 was put toward a five-day Ireland tour with Marlin Travel providing the remaining costs. The tour was a prize package on tickets sold that evening only. One hundred tickets were sold at $100 dollars each clearing the Foundation a profit of $10000. The Gala was raising money for a state-of-the-art mammography machine which has the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of many in our community. A great investment by Rotary to a wonderful community cause. Way to go RCNS.
