Service to Community and People is made up of two committees ---Service to Community and Service to People in Need. The Community committee provides assistance to organizations that serve people in a group setting. The Service to People in Need provides assistance to organizations that provide more of an individual service.
Each of these committees has a chair and/or a co chair.
The list of agencies serviced and projects may change from year to year depending on the needs of the community. Each October the members decide hands-on projects and agencies with whom to work. Each project is guided by a contact person who volunteers to take that responsibility.
Each committee makes recommendations to the main Quota body at the monthly meeting relating to the amount of monies or services provided to each organization.
