Nichole Asquith is the Community Engagement Coordinator.
Midwest Transplant Network (MTN) has been connecting lives in Kansas and western Missouri since 1973. As a federally certified, not-for-profit organ procurement organization (OPO), we work with organ, eye, and tissue donors, their families, hospitals, and other professional partners to extend legacies, provide hope and give life. Together with our partners and volunteers (“Ambassadors”), we are dedicated to increasing awareness and education about the need for organ, eye and tissue donation.
Our Mission: Saving lives by honoring the gift of organ and tissue donation with dignity and compassion
Our Vision: Leading organ and tissue donation through excellence, quality and partnerships
Parkville Rotary Donation to Maui
The Parkville Rotary Board recently passed a motion to donate $300 to Maui for relief efforts after the wildfires. The board is working on setting up a way for additional donations to be made online. Checks and cash can still be given to Joe as well if you are interested in donating.
Parkville Rotary Sign Upkeep CORRECTION
Parkville Rotary's street signs have all been cleaned up along Hwy 9 and Hwy 45. There are only two signs, not three. The club is looking for someone to take over this as their personal project for future cleaning. This task only needs to be completed once or twice a year.
If you are interested please let Bob Stone (rd_stone@icloud.com) or Dalyn Novak (dnovak@wskfarch.com) know. Thanks!
