|
| On Sunday, April 18, 2010, the members of the JFK Rotary Club will be hosting their major fundraiser, The Thomas Carmody Memorial ~ JFK Rotary Club ~ "5K Runway Run".
Since its charter in 1970, the Rotary Club of JFK International Airport has become one of JFK Airport’s leading local service organizations. It is comprised of local business, airline, and professional people who work within the JFK Airport community and share the same common principles, which have guided Rotarians throughout the world since Rotary’s founding in 1905. Rotary’s primary commitment to “Service Above Self” is practiced through the four avenues of service: vocational, international, community and to the club.
The funds raised from the "JFK Rotary Club ~ 5K Runway Run" are used to support organizations such as The Gift of Life International Inc.; they sponsor terminally ill children for life-saving heart operations. Boy Scouts “Air Explorer” Program; a co-ed program for students who have a career interest in the aviation industry. The Mill Neck Manor School for the Deaf; they enhance the quality of life for people who are deaf. In addition, due to the devastating earthquake in Haiti, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the “Haiti Earthquake Relief Effort”.
The race will be held on Sunday, April 18, 2010 at Bldg. 14 - JFK Int’l Airport; Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. and the race begins promptly 9:00 a.m. If you can't join us, we invite you to make a donation and help us reach our goal so we can continue to affect lives in a positive way.
Looking forward to seeing you on the runway.
