    Kiwanis Club of Sarasota donates to Goodwill's Veterans Services Program

    Coconut Telegraph

    SRQ DAILY

    SATURDAY MAR 12, 2016 |

    The Kiwanis Club of Sarasota recently donated $4,274.45 to Goodwill Manasota’s Veterans Services Program. The money was raised through the sale of tickets to the 2nd annual Sarasota Kiwanis Veterans Day Breakfast, held in 2015. The proceeds were shared by Goodwill Manasota and the Kiwanis Foundation. Launched in 2013, Goodwill Manasota’s Veterans Services Program helps eliminate barriers to employment and provides opportunities for higher-paying positions for veterans and their families, as well as connects veterans with crucial social services and offers support to help them re-integrate into their families, communities and jobs. In 2015, Goodwill Manasota’s Veterans Services Program served 358 veterans; this year, the program has expanded – thanks to a grant of $225,000 from the U.S. Department of Labor – to serve homeless veterans. For more information on how you can support Goodwill’s Veterans Services Program, call (941) 355-2721, ext. 451.

    Give Gratitude, Grateful Patient Program

    If you have been a patient at Sarasota Memorial, perhaps you can look back to when the care you received exceeded your expectations. Maybe it was kind words from a doctor or nurse, the patience of a technologist who took the time to explain a procedure, or a volunteer, housekeeper or food service
