The Janesville Noon Rotary Club hosted its annual Meat Raffle Fundraiser in October, and it was a smashing success! Rotarians, guests, and community members came together for a day full of laughter, friendly competition, and generosity, all in the spirit of service.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of attendees, donors, and sponsors, the club raised significant funds to support Rotary International’s mission to eradicate polio and to provide college scholarships for local high school seniors.
Club President Janet Fugate, a former Miss Janesville and Miss Wisconsin runner-up, kept the energy high as she took the stage during the live auction, which featured the now-famous “Dinner with the Queen” —a lighthearted and memorable highlight that had everyone talking! To make the day even more special, Janet’s “royal” dinner will be made for fellow Rotarian Ron Mallon, who also happens to be pictured with her (see photo).
The event was a perfect example of what Rotary does best, combining fellowship, fun, and philanthropy to make a lasting difference both locally and globally. The Janesville Noon Rotary Club extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended, donated, and volunteered to make this year’s Meat Raffle so successful.
Together, we continue to live out Rotary’s enduring motto: Service Above Self.
