Wikipedia is considered to be the World’s most significant tool for reference material. The Wiki links show up on the 1st page of Google 97% of the time. With a Page on one of the most revered reference tools, you are sure to get yourself or your business noticed. So if you're thinking of getting a Wikipedia Page created, it's the best time of the year. If you are interested in getting more information just respond back to this email.

Hello Steilacoom Kiwanis Team, I have a business topic that could be an engaging and practical presentation for your Kiwanis members who own or support local businesses. My goal is to help strengthen the financial stability of our local business community that, in turn, supports families and children across our region. I am a strategic CFO advisor for small and mid‑sized business owners. I partner with them to create stronger and more predictable cash flow so they can build a business they consider successful. I work with owners throughout the year to set goals and reach them. Many business owners start their company because they’re excellent at their craft. Over time, the business can begin to feel less like an asset and more like a demanding job. I’ve developed a short, practical presentation that helps owners take a fresh look at how their business operates. The central idea is simple: Is your business running like a job, or like a machine? During the session, we explore: • Why many businesses struggle to consistently produce cash • The difference between a business that runs like a job vs. a machine • Key drivers that help a business generate more profit and cash flow The presentation is clear, engaging, and accessible for owners of all sizes and industries. My goal is to give your members practical insights they can apply immediately. Would you be open to a brief conversation to see if this would be a good fit for your club’s programming? You can schedule a time that works best for you here: https://calendly.com/laura-b-kap I have times available next week for a virtual call. Warmly, Laura Kapuscinski, CFA, CFE, CMA

As a SKC member, may I please get a current membership roster by email? thanks! BL

I cannot seem to bring up today's meeting and play it for my guy Frank Pedersen. I get to the site but can't access the meeting.

Hello! My name is Tara Jacquin and I am reaching out on behalf of our client, who makes donations to the Steilacoom Kiwanis Foundation through a Charles Schwab DAFgiving360 account. Schwab notified us that one of the donation checks sent in April has not been cashed. To stop and reissue the check, Schwab needs to verify with someone at your organization that the mailing address is still: Steilacoom Kiwanis Foundation P.O. Box 1315 Tacoma, WA 98401-1315 Schwab has been unable to locate a phone number and has also attempted to reach your organization by email. To help with this process, could you please provide the best email address or phone number for Schwab to use to verify the address? We would like to have the donation check reissued as soon as possible. Thank you for your help!

At a recent Kiwanis of Clover Park meeting I announced that Partners for Parks, of which I am a member, was going to try for a nearly $3M grant to help fund the H-Barn project at Ft. Steilacoom park. Part of the grant requirement was for 3 endorsement letters from nonprofits in the area. I asked the club if they would like me to write an endorsement from our Kiwanis Club. They did, and then Harley Moberg, who was visiting that day, said that he was sure that the Steilacoom Club would like to sign the endorsement as well. That would be wonderful as it makes is twice as strong. Anyway, the endorsement letter is due on Aug 17 so I need to know who to contact and how to get it to them in the next couple of days.

How do hosts determine the number of guests that have sent RSVPs for their event?

To whom it may concern, My name is Mark Fender with Ezee Fiber. We are a fiber optic internet service provider now serving the Milton, WA area. Ezee Fiber offers several advantages over traditional internet providers such as Comcast. We offer a direct fiber optic internet connection that is faster and more reliable that Comcast's traditional copper coax cable connection. The benefit to you is an internet connection that is reliable, performs faster and better, and in most cases, does not require a service contract. We offer competitive pricing, and internet speeds up to 8 Gigabyte. What I would like to do is schedule a short, 30-minute meeting to discuss Ezee Fiber's solutions. I have some time on Thursday, July 16th, at 2:00 PM, or Friday, July 17th, at 11:00 AM. Which one works best for you ? If another date and time works better for you, let me know and I will make it work. Regards, Mark Fender Account Executive, Enterprise Sales Kent, WA. Direct: 425-264-8207

Hello - we recently discovered the can donation site at Pioneer Middle School. Two questions - (1) do you prefer the cans loose or in bags? (2) do you prefer the cans intact or crushed? We go through a lot of beverage cans in our house and are happy we found this community benefit.

Hello, I am the new Volunteer Coordinator at Envision Hospice. I am hoping to find a time to come to your Kiwanis meeting to share about the different volunteer opportunities we offer. My thanks for considering me for a presentation to the Kiwanians. Wendy

I'm a program coordinator with Lutheran Community Services Northwest, a non-profit social services agency. We have several programs that offer volunteer opportunities in Pierce County, and I would welcome a chance to present about them to your members, either at one of your regular meetings or any other method that's available. Our volunteer opportunities are completely free and strengthen communities through social engagement and transportation for seniors and dementia patients, and by bolstering the volunteer ranks of organizations such as food banks. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I am requesting your current President to give me a call at your convenience.

Hi Sheila, my name is Ryan Retzlaff and I facilitate the business sponsorships at Steilacoom High School. Tom shared your number with me and hopefully you were able to receive my voicemail from earlier this week. I would love to catch you on the phone to go over what we are doing at the high school. Please feel free to send me an email or call my cell 541-324-6079 Thank you.

I hope you can join us at Anderson Island Elementary for our annual Read Across America Breakfast and see what the kids have made with the grant money we have received.

Hello - The rectangular stickers which were placed on items (with "Winning Bid #xxx) are very sticky, and leave a residue when peeled off; I had to use my fingernail to pick it off of two of our items, one being a wooden plaque (#096); after the white sticker residue was picked off, there was still a dull area on the plaque. The round stickers indicating Item # came off easily. Requesting either use of a different (less sticky) rectangular sticker or more awareness of where it is placed on an item. The check-out line was quite slow; not sure what improvements are needed. I will commend you for the food - absolutely delicious, and a fun evening overall. And appreciate having beer for the non-wine drinkers. A nice size crowd; has felt too crowded in years past.....hope the smaller numbers did not affect your fundraising efforts. People were quite gabby at the tables - not sure how many heard "no paddle raise, use your funds on the dessert auction." Maybe more visual cues (signage at tables? and at the dessert display?) are needed for that. This is a BIG event, and thanks to everyone for your hard work.
