It was fun meeting and visiting with several bright college graduates at my table as our club recognized the top Emporia State University Teachers College graduates. It is obvious that these young people are passionate about the teaching profession. It would be interesting to find out in one year how each is doing in their careers.
his Motel 6 in Emporia to deal with. He had just installed new televisions in his rooms. The idea of giving televisions to people who cannot afford to buy one occurred to Sam, for in his country of India nearly everything is recycled. It is in his nature to think twice before throwing anything away. The Emporia Rotary Club had just completed a project to refurbish part of the local Salvation Army headquarters. He knew from Leut. Lynn Lopez that the Salvation Army collects and distributes food, clothing and other essentials to people in need in our community. So Sam talked to Rotary Past President Barbara Wry, who had been one of the leaders during the recent Rotary Club project at the Salvation Army. When Barbara learned about the potential donation of televisions, she contacted Lopez about it. Upon hearing the news, Leut Lopez readily accepted the offer and replied immediately that they will be sending their truck and volunteers to carry them from their present upstairs location in Sam's Motel 6 to their truck. Leut Lopez herself arrived and communicated to Sam that she was very happy with his gesture of donating his televisions to those in need. 
Sam wanted to make sure that everyone knows how Rotarian Barbara Wry expediently got Sam in touch with Leut. Lopez, who picked up his donation right away to get them in the hands of those who need them. To show his appreciation, Sam presented Barbara with a backpack to show her that he always has her back.
