2000 CAP Awards

Many groups submitted wonderful Community Activities Program (CAP) entries to the CAP Award program. The entries told us what direct benefits 2000 CAP programs have had on the local group members and on their communities. The Community Service Award portion of the program resulted in a tie between Lonestar Mensa (Texas) and Minnesota Mensa. Both Geri Neemidge (Lonestar) and Judy Hogan (Minnesota) worked with their local PBS station pledge drives. They were identified as being Mensans from their area and were shown working the phones to help the stations raise money to continue their programming efforts. Thank you!

The winner of the Education Award was Columbus Area Mensa, which learned of an opportunity that existed in Africa. In Langa Township's schools in South Africa, there were few books and supplies. Kathy Beatty worked with a local school and its students to collect the desperately needed books and supplies. They collected 170 pounds of books and 1,000 pens and pencils, along with educational games. Langa Township was very grateful for these gifts.
