Quota Collect

Quench in our hearts, O Lord, all fires of selfishness,
Unfold to us the joys of true friendship,
Open our minds to a better understanding of service,
Teach us the real meaning of sharing,
And help us to hold high those principles of Quota for which we stand

OK, NOW THAT SERVICE...

We said the last blog was going to be about a project our fundraising supports.  Well, we just could not wait to tell you how our Quarter Auction turned out, so it snuck in there.

We mentioned we have several fundraisers during the year, what are those funds going toward?  One of our biggest things is SCHOLARSHIPS.  Yep, each year we give 4-$1,000 scholarships to college students.

The Janice Southworth Memorial Scholarship is for students entering in fields that relate to speech, hearing or a field that pertains to working with children.  The scholarship applications are reviewed in the spring and presented at our June picnic.
Janice Southworth was a Quota member that passed away several years ago, in a car accident, on her way to Kent, Ohio.  Her husband donated  funds in her name to start the scholarship and it has continued ever since.
If you or someone you know is interested in applying for onre of our scholarships, pllease
