General Meeting
2018-07-17 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Home of a Mission Viejo Member, Mission Viejo, CA, United States
Come join us for our July General Meeting

July’s guest speaker will be Omri Marian, Tax Law Professor at UCI who will join us to discuss the impact of the recent tax law.

For our next two meetings, on top of collecting supplies for the local homeless in Orange County, we’ll be collecting school supplies to help out low-income elementary, middle school and high school kids right here in our neighborhoods.
We are jumping on board with Families Forward and joining their initiative to make sure local kids have every opportunity to succeed when school starts back up in the Fall.
So take a few minutes out of the campaign spin cycle and do something good. Along with obvious items like backpacks, pencils, rulers and the link, there are some items, like clothing, that are also needed.
See the full list of needs here
We’ll be collecting donated supplies at our June and July meetings for this great cause or follow the instructions on the list if you want to donate directly!

With so many new members this year, we are also continuing our new Welcome Corner! Between 6:30 PM and 7:00 PM, new attendees will be greeted and encouraged to meet some of our already active members, find out more about the club and share your concerns and ideas. We need everyone if we’re going to flip South Orange County blue. So please stop by and say hi!

DON’T FORGET! Political Outreach is doing a special donation to help the homeless right here in Orange County. Bring any extra unused travel or hotel toiletries to the November meeting to help contribute. This includes disposable razors and toothbrushes!
