WHAT'S HAPPENING AT NEMC
JULY 4 RECAP
NEMC founded the Evanston 4th of July parade. Despite it being canceled this year due to COVID-19, we were able to participate virtually.
MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Pam Swales has transitioned her NEMC presidency to Barb Egofske. We thank Pam for her tenure and welcome Barb to the role!
IN THE NEWS
Pam Swales presents our check for
$10,000 to Karen Singer, President and
CEO of the YWCA Evanston/North Shore. This donation fully sponsors the Children’s Reading Space.
Give to the end-of-year appeal
The Board has decided to partake in an end-of-the year appeal to our membership to try to make up for the loss of funds due to the cancelation of Fortnightly 2020.
Without the Fortnightly fundraiser, NEMC will be have difficulty delivering back to the Evanston community through grant requests. An example of these organizations is the Evanston Work Ethic (“WE”) Program, a program within the Forest E. Powell Foundation. Our goal is to raise $4,000 to give to the WE Program to support four students' summer internships. Your generosity is appreciated.
