AVALON, CATALINA ISLAND - The Avalon Rotary Club annually distributes funds to benefit international and local charities. Recent funds have been used to help feed the hungry.

The Avalon Rotary club along with the two San Diego Rotary Clubs and one in Montebello, CA partnered with the Club Rotary Centenairo of Ensenada. In early January, two Avalon Rotary Club members, Lourdes Thoricht and Rita Whitaker traveled to Ensenada to distribute 925 food baskets and blankets throughout the poverty stricken areas of Ensenada. The needy families live in cardboard houses, with no electricity and very limited bathroom facilities. The food baskets and blankets are given out each January to help celebrate the arrival of the Three Kings. The recipients were overjoyed with everything they received, particularly the warm blankets.
