2004 Quota Cares Month Winners “Charge Up” Clubs with Service

Winners of the We Share Foundation's 2004 Quota Cares Month Competition found a great way to strengthen their club's team spirit, recruit new members, and increase their club's visibility in their local community. And what was their success secret? A wonderful service project that involved all club members!

Yes, a service project can do it all, and that was the motive behind the launching of the We Share Foundation's Quota Cares Month, an annual public awareness initiative and competition, two years ago.

The goal of Quota Cares Month is simple: each year, every club is invited to plan one special, newsworthy service project—or a fund-raising project in which proceeds are donated to a worthy charitable cause—anytime in March. To get the most from their Quota Cares Month service project, clubs are asked to "go the extra mile" and plan recruitment, fund-raising, and public awareness activities in connection with their project.

The We Share Foundation invites you to meet 2004 winning clubs and learn more about their projects.
