PRESIDENT'S NEW MESSAGE
My Dear Fellow Evrytanians,
We have experienced a most difficult and unusual year. The coronavirus turned the entire world upside down and caused us to restructure our daily lives, making us feel emotions ranging from fear to anger to despair. No one knew in January, 2020, what to expect for the oncoming year. But now in January, 2021, with the distribution of the vaccine, we have reason to feel differently about this new year. Although we are not through with the pandemic yet, we have hope that we will soon be able to resume a normal life.
2020 presented many challenges for our Evrytanian Association. But through the capable efforts of the Executive Board, Board of Trustees, office staff and dedicated individuals who would not allow our Velouchi to falter, we were able to meet these challenges and overcome them. Although we could not meet in person, we were able to conduct business by meeting online through ZOOM.
MAKE OUR 2021 RAFFLE A SUCCESS
Please return your 2021 raffle ticket stubs with your donation in the self-addressed envelope you will receive by the end of February. If you cannot afford to purchase the ticket, please try to sell it to a relative or friend. If you need additional raffle tickets, please contact our Headquarters or your local Chapter President and Representative to our National Board.
The new drawing date is set for SUNDAY, JUNE 13, 2021. Last year we were much behind of our yearly goal.
Your contribution will greatly support our Scholarship Recipients, and other ongoing philanthropic projects.
Please attend our 77th Convention General Assembly on June 13, 2021, and GOOD LUCK.
