announced the MK Can event. They asked businesses, organisations, charities, churches, clubs and small groups in MK to help them.\u00a0 MK Foodbank have seen a significant increase in the need for their services in this economic crisis.\u00a0 If we achieved the target of 132,000 cans MK Can would help give them 6 months\u2019 worth of food for their clients as well as break a world record.\u00a0 All each group signing up needed to do was collect 350 tins of food to make a 25metre line. We may be a small club, but we are always keen to help our community and so back in July we said yes.\u00a0 We could ask our families and friends to help us.\u00a0 Well, our families and friends, as usual did not let us down.\u00a0 In fact, they went over and above and we have to say a massive thank you for that.\u00a0 In the end, I think we collected nearly 1,000 cans and were able to help out MK Snap and YMCA MK reach their 350 targets.\u00a0 And we had some left over which we donated to the Walton Community Support Project Foodbank.\u00a0 A couple of their volunteers joined us for the day to help out.\u00a0 Again, a big thank you to everyone who helped us collect the cans and who helped on the day.\u00a0 There was a marvellous community spirit on the day and yes, we smashed the record.\u00a0 It now stands at 102,447 instead of 44,966.\u00a0 Our club can now officially say we are a Guiness Book of Records Participator and we shall shortly have the certificate to prove it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And I think this just goes to show being a Soroptimist is never boring.\u00a0 We never quite know what we are going to get up to next.\u00a0 And so, my fellow members, what is going to be our next challenge.\u00a0 And we have been challenged.\u00a0 2024 will be the SIGBI Federations 90 birthday.\u00a0 Our new President Ruth Healey has challenged clubs to do 90 things next year.\u00a0 Well, we may not be able to do 90 things but I am sure we can come up with something, so thinking hats on everyone please.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/2023\/11\/13\/5779\/2023-winner-with-zoe-raven-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5790\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5790 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/files\/2023\/11\/2023-winner-with-Zoe-Raven--150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/2023\/11\/13\/5779\/2nd-and-3rd-place-winners-2023\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5791\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5791 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/files\/2023\/11\/2nd-and-3rd-place-winners-2023-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/2023\/11\/13\/5779\/2023-winners-and-nominees-1-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5792\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5792 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/milton-keynes\/files\/2023\/11\/2023-winners-and-nominees-1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>On the 20 October we held our 2nd Violet Awards ceremony celebrating women of action, unsung heroes helping vulnerable women in the charities we support.\u00a0 As you can see from just a few of the photos we had a wonderful evening.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is only the second time we have held this event.\u00a0 This year we were very fortunate in having Jan Flawn, CBE and founder of P J Care sponsor us.\u00a0 Zoe Raven, CEO of Acorn Early Years Foundation was our guest speaker and gave us a fascinating talk on early years childcare and managing her foundation.\u00a0 But the evening was all about our nominees.\u00a0\u00a0 It was a privilege to say thank you for all the unstinting dedication they give to their charities and the people who they help.
