Dime a Day

As the new Optimist year begins, all members are invited to become supporters of the Optimist International Foundation. The Dime A Day program is the easiest way to do so and is the OIF's backbone of support. 

If you are already a Dime A Day Member, thank you. If not, please consider becoming one today to support the Optimist Mission. 

You can do so at www.oifoundation.org. Just click on Donate Now and then select the US/Canada box. The form is quick and easy, and you can select Dime a Day under the donation section. 

Like it says on the pin, your donation will be “Helping a Child, One Dime at a Time."

Webinar: Are We Helping or Supporting? A Real Talk About Community Needs

Let's be honest – we've been doing good work for a long time! Sometimes we run programs because "we've always done them" or because they were a good idea years ago. Communities change. The needs of young people change. This workshop is about making sure we're not just busy doing but actually making an impact where it matters most by understanding the difference between helping and supporting. We'll also figure out how to really listen to your community, look at what we’re currently doing, and find the gaps. No judgment, just practical tools to help you do more good in your community. Be the Change!

When: Monday, November 10, 7 p.m. Central Time
