On April 16th, MBSR fulfilled the district grant for "First Book." Rotarians worked shoulder to shoulder to put labels in children's books identifying the donation from the Monarch Beach Sunrise Rotary Club. These books were given to RH Dana Elementary School. Rotarians went to some classrooms and read to the students. What a feel good project!

Hello Rotarian Mike Whipple provided an update on "Orphans in Afghanistan." His mission is to educate every Afghan girl. Since the American withdrawal from Afghanistan, education for girls in Afghanistan is nearly forbidden. His organization supplies computers (with the permission of their father's) to the girls in one of the ethnic subgroups that want their girls educated and enroll them in remote learning to get high school and college degrees. The number of orphans is increasing because women are forbidden to be midwives and pregnant women are not allowed to see male doctor, death of the mother and child birth is increasing rapidly.
Girls and women were once flourishing under American influence.

Melissa Reed and Chase McClung are two great Students of the Month from Dana Hills High School. Melissa, who has a GPA of 4.67, will have a full ride of academic and sports scholarships to Stony Brook, likely to study law. Chase, With a GPA of 4.9, plans to attend UCSB or Clemson University to perhaps pursue law, business or pre-med.
It is a delight to meet these wonderful students. Their parents are so proud of them, as we are.
Always great to have the principal of Dana Hills with us, Brittany Casey. Fun fact, Brittany was a member of the Dana Hills class of 2000 and returned to her alma mater as principal in 2024-25.

MBSR had 2 "Flipping fantastic" pancake breakfasts to kick off the Easter festivities for the City of Dana Point. Pines Park and Sea Canyon Park had magic shows and Easter egg hunts to add to the holiday fun.
Interactors from Dana Hills and Capo Valley High School joined the work force. Great job teams!
Thanks to Stacks Pancake House and Coffee Importers for their generosity and being such great community partners to make this holiday event possible.
