DESCRIPTION
The Pilot International News is the bi-monthly, supplemental online newsletter of Pilot International.TRANSCRIPT
Greetings Pilots! At this time many of you have either already attended you district’s Fall Council or are packing up to go, and your energy and enthusiasm for our historic organization is contagious! We are thrilled as well to bring you this edition of the Pilot International News. There is so much to share with you that it can hardly be contained here in the pages of this newsletter. It is truly an exciting time to be a Pilot - and an Anchor!
There are so very many important and exciting events to share with you! Turn to page 2 to find out more about our efforts for continued international expan-sion! Can you believe we have a new Pilot and Anchor Club chartering in South Africa in November! How exciting! We’re also getting excited about 2014 Pilot International Annual Convention and Leadership Conference in Chicago and all the fun events we already have planned for you including new fundraisers and auctions like our “Give More. Win More...in the WINdy City” event. You can find out more about 2014 PI Convention and what’s in store on page 3 of this newsletter.
Speaking of fundraisers, don’t forget to join our online Initials, Inc. “Show You Care” party, going on now through December 8! 20% of all proceeds go to benefit Pilot International and our many ABC’s campaigns. Turn to page 2 or click http://bit.ly/pilot_SYCParty to find out more.
As you know, Pilot International was instrumental in having the second week in November named “International Care & Kindness Week.” 2013 will mark our first celebration of this inspiring week, and we encourage each and every one of you to get involved! Pilot International has engaged in targeted outreach to other membership organizations, caregiver organizations and corporations and expects that over 2.5 million people will visit www.internationalcareandkindnessweek.org to be inspired by this campaign. This is truly a watershed moment for Pilot, and we urge each and every club to participate in this unique and vital event in some way. See page 7 for more information about International Care & Kindness Week and how your club can get involved.
We are also proud to announce that our new membership database system is starting to be installed and will be fully operational in the spring of 2014. The new database system will not only help us better manage our club data but also affords a myriad of features and benefits for individual clubs, so stay tuned for more information about this exciting development - coming soon!
It is our goal each and every day to continue to bring you quality opportunities to share your spirit of Pilot Friendship and Service with the world and to help spread that spirit around the globe. We are proud of our organization, and we are proud of each of you! As we begin this 2013 Holiday Season, let us commit to DO MORE, CARE MORE and BE MORE - TOGETHER!

Pilot International News • September/October2013
Pilot International has launched our global
partnership with Safe Kids Worldwide!
Many Pilots are already familiar with Safe Kids. Safe Kids Worldwide is a glob-al organization dedicated to preventing injuries in children, the number one killer of kids in the United States. Around the world, a child dies from an unin-tentional injury every 30 seconds. And millions of children are injured in ways
that can affect them for a lifetime. - See more at: http://bit.ly/pilot_SKWhoWeAre.
Given our shared commitment to protecting children and educating kids about preventable injuries, Safe Kids and Pilot have forged a national partnership where we are encouraging our local Pilot and Anchor Clubs to work together with local Safe Kids Coalitions to plan and promote events and aware-ness campaigns on CPS, bike safety, pedestrian safety, and sports safety. In addition, Pilot clubs are being invited to get involved in planning and fundraising for Safe Kids Day in April 2014.
We know that many of our Pilot Clubs already have relationships with their local Safe Kids Coalitions, and we are very excited about the potential for this partnership. PIHQ and Safe Kids Worldwide have both sent out information necessary to connect our clubs and their coalitions. Clubs Presidents, if you did not receive the directory of the various Safe Kids Coalitions and information on first steps to part-nering with your local Safe Kids Coalition, please contact Megan Milton at [email protected]!
If you do already have experience working with your local Safe Kids Coalition, we’d love to hear about it! For more information or to share details of your club’s current partnership with Safe Kids, please contact Megan Milton at [email protected] or by phone at (478) 477-1208 x 300. Also please visit the Safe Kids Worldwide website at http://www.safekids.org/ and view their recent YouTube video an-nouncing their excitement about partnering with Pilot! http://bit.ly/pilot_SKKCVideo.

A Pick Me Ups Story...Get Inspired! Show a Caregiver You Care!
The Pilot Club of Catoosa County presented their first Caregiver Pick Me Ups award to Roni May at a recent club gathering. Roni’s husband, Sam, was the victim of an automobile accident in February of 2010 which left him with a traumatic brain injury. “The hospital didn’t think he would live,” said Roni. “They were wrong. Thank God he did live but with injuries so severe that he was classi-fied as a quadriplegic and also unable to speak. I tell anyone who asks that we have done what we have had to do by the grace of God and the prayers of our friends and family. We continue to wait for the rest of the story.” (continuedon page 8)

they’re making a difference. The thing I love about boomer volunteers is that they offer seasoned experi-ence and lifelong lessons they’ve learned. Young people have great skills in technology and social media, but they don’t have the lessons to share that boomers and seniors do.” Without realizing it, she hit the nail on the head.
Clubs are increasingly tapping into that strength. They are starting to tell their story and doing a better job of recruiting older volunteers. This age group is responding to those cries for help. By midlife, you probably have some sense of what issues matter to you. So what skills sets you need in your club and look around. Who do you admire in your own backyard that you think could give your club some help?”
A couple of selling points that are two potential bonuses to volunteering:
1. It can sometimes lead to a paying job, either at a nonprofit or elsewhere. That’s because club members likely acquire new skills, make new contacts and demon-strate their value to the club they are assisting.
2. It can be good for your health. Studies have shown that volunteering (especially among boomers and older people) can increase your energy, decrease depres-sion, lessen isolation and lower your mortality rate. A person can literally live longer if you volunteer.
Happy Club Building!!!! Rhona Espinoza, PI Membership Coordinator, [email protected]
Rene Koss, PC of Catoosa County member present-ed Roni with the club’s first caregiver Pick Me Ups gift, a “Box of Sunshine.” Rene said, “Roni is such a ‘Box of Sunshine’ to everyone she meets that a gift signifying her radiant spirit seemed the thing to do.”
“What an awesome surprise,” Roni remarked. “My ‘Box of Sunshine’ is just wonderful...it contained all things yellow, bright, and cheery, including a yellow paper sunflower to make me smile. Each member of this Pilot club has been a constant source of encour-agement to Sam and I and this award has inspired us to keep on keeping on!”

Why can’t we woo the Baby Boomer Generation to our volunteer in our clubs?
What’s the problem? Even putting the year-to-year figures aside, why is it that fewer than a third of my fellow boomers — who often think of themselves as the original giving-back generation — volunteer?
There’s no simple explanation, of course. We’re busy. We need to focus on hanging onto our jobs. We have obligations to our kids and parents. All true. But I think a key reason is that many boomers haven’t found ways they can volunteer the way they want to, by putting their talents and skills to use, rather than by stuffing envelopes, answering phones and donating food.
I recently asked a new member of our club what her take was on
this trend as a baby boomer? She shared, “It seemed to us that we needed to create something fulfilling and rewarding that would build on the skills and unique talents of boomers, They want to know that

Pilots and Anchors are Amazing People!
Our club members give of themselves each and every day and joyfully answer the call to serve, whenever or wherever it comes. In all four corners of the globe, Pilots are hard at work not only doing the good deeds of Pilot and Anchor Clubs but also leading outstanding individual lives.
Pilots and Anchors are Unique Individuals! Each member brings his or her own set of skills and experiences and offers their special talents to the benefit of their club and their
community at large. Without a doubt, our club members are out in the world right now making outstanding and lasting contributions, leading lives of distinction that deserve recognition. Every Pilot is special. Every Anchor is special. And every one of you is vital to our organization.
We want to share their stories!
Outstanding Pilots and Outstanding Anchors from around the globe will be honored in quarterly in upcoming editions of The Pilot Log or online monthly on the Pilot International Website. What makes a member “Outstanding?” That is for YOU to decide! Do you have a special member in your club who leads the kind of life you believe would inspire others? Does that person contrib-ute to his or her society outside of the club in a way you feel is especially important? Do you have a member in your club with a unique career or someone who has made a name for themselves in a singular and positive way outside of their work with Pilot or Anchor? Then tell us!
To nominate a club member as an Outstanding Pilot or Outstanding Anchor, write to us and tell us in 500 words or less why you think your nominee should be honored. To submit your entry (with photographs of your nominee if pos-sible), please visit the I’m A Pilot > Outstanding Pilot page on the Pilot International Website or email Alison Coons, Director of Communications and Editor of the Pilot Log, at [email protected]. If you do not have access to email, please mail your story to Alison Coons at Pilot Inter-national Headquarters, 102 Preston Court, Macon, GA 31210 or send via fax to (478) 477-6978.
