We need volunteers! Don't forget to sign up and help us serve those who served! 
 
The Rotary Club of Mental Health & Wellness is partnering with the American Legion Post 127 to revamp and reopen its historical and treasured location in Glendale. Through this partnership, our club will help guarantee a safe and welcoming space for Veterans and others to congregate and gather, thus promoting mental health and wellness for local veterans and across communities.
 
Time to roll up our sleeves and sign-up for a great cause! 
 
This project will take place over the next few weekends in phases (see the schedule below). 
 
We aim to complete this project by Veterans Day, Friday, November 11, 2022, for a soft opening followed by a grand opening at a later date (TBD). 
 
We need your support! There are plenty of opportunities to volunteer. We ask that every member commits to at least one shift and support in whatever capacity you can. Don’t worry if you don’t have experience. Our veteran friends and fantastic skilled workers will be on-site to guide us along the way. 
 
We highly encourage our Rotarian friends from other clubs in District 5280 to collaborate with us on this project. Please message us if you would like to be included as a collaborating club.
