Helping out our two ' Speaker Seekers' . Coming up with a good speaker every week is no easy task.
Program
 
Todd  Lyons  introduced Kids Ability.  Tracey Shonk_ Lacey, Deborah Barton and Bianca Gennaro .
 
Since covid  therapists have learned to work virtually.  I think I would need to see it it to understand it.   Something called Green Screen Technology.  ( children understand it and like it which is what really matters. .  Parents are happy too.)
 
Kids Ability  has helped 2600 children in Cambridge .  Sadly 340 are on the wait list.  
 
There is a $240 million program coming out in June that may help with this.  
 
Fund raising is down 25% which is why the Super Hero Run is important.
 
Super Hero Run is  June 7- 13 and is being run in Cambridge, Kitchener-waterloo , Guelph and Fergus.
 
Join a team or run  walk yourself.
 
Todd Lyons is our resident expert on the Super Hero Run  .  Any questions could be directed to him.
 
Larry Brokenshire thanked Kids Ability for the update.  Larry used to run in this when he first joined Rotary.  Now he walks socially distancing from his grand children.  Larry said this is Rotary's most important charity.
