Brenda Kasaty is a wife, a mother of three girls, a licensed social worker, a home baker, a coffee enthusiast, and an unapologetic dreamer. She has been touched by individuals with Intellectual and Developmental disabilities throughout her life, particularly watching her nephew grow up, working as a PARA in an IDD high school classroom, coaching adaptive athletes, and most recently with friends in the Lincoln community.
Rose Cat Coffee Co and Reading Society is the culmination of years of dreaming, and an unrelenting hope that together we can create a connected community that will change the way that individuals with IDD are treated, valued, accepted, seen, and integrated into their own communities.

It's been a long-standing tradition for Rotary 14 to host a picnic for collegiate students in our community. This year’s picnic will take place Sunday, September 7, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. at Holmes Lake.
Here you’ll find a list of items we hope to have donated to help make the event a success. Additionally, we’re looking for volunteers to assist with setup or clean up. Or, if you have a spare gift card lying around that you'd like to donate, we’ll take that, too! Every little bit helps.
Our greatest needs include:
Cases of Water
Use of a Cooler with Ice
Desserts (non-meltable)
Give away prizes for students (Lincoln swag, gift cards, university clothing, gift baskets etc.)
Food (Vegetarian and vegan options)
Help with setup from 2:00-2:45 p.m.
Help with cleanup from 5-6 p.m.
This year we're providing three options to help make it easier to donate:
Deliver items to a Rotary meeting (on or before September 2rd)
Deliver to Holmes Lake on the day of the picnic
Request a pick up (We will come to you and get the donation. You’ll be contacted after submitting).
This is an event that has welcomed many international students and many look forward to.

The Rotary 14 Foundation was formed in 1997 with one purpose in mind - its mission to support the objectives of the Lincoln Rotary #14 Club. Over the past 28 years, the Foundation has grown to approximately $3.5 million. These monies support the charitable work of Club #14 in our community, region and the world.
As the needs our Club wants to address continue to grow, the Foundation must also continue to grow! This is an invitation to join Jim Mastera, Jennifer Williams and other Foundation officers to learn more about how the Foundation operates and how you can find a way to join your fellow club members in providing support in a way that works for you.
Refreshments and snacks will be provided at each session. Please sign up to attend one today!
September 15, 5:30 - 6:30 pm at Jim Mastera's
