PROMOTING PBA�S GOOD WORKS

Every year our members lead many outstanding service projects to help their local communities, and most get good local news coverage.  Considered collectively, this record of good works is impressive.  With this in mind, the PBA would like to produce an end-of-the-year press release summarizing the value of all these projects that benefit Pennsylvanians.  In order to accomplish this goal, the PR/PA office is asking local presidents and EO�s to please keep a year-long tally of the  1)dollar value of money raised for, and/or   2)time invested in local community service efforts.  Please forward to us at the H.B.A.A. a description of your service projects this year or inform us of service projects in which  other members are involved.
