Welcome to our website! If you would like to know more about what we do, visit our "diaries", by clicking on the listing left

On the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Quotarians work closely with the DeLepee Center for the Deaf, Hope Haven, The Harrison County Emergency Children's Shelter, as well as The Gulf Coast Women's Shelter, and the Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse. QI also supports the International Club to Club program which allows personal participation with Quotarians in third world countries around the world as they strive to combat the significant and overwhelming projects like clean water, hunger and poverty.Locally, the organization is most noted for its annual community service project, the St. Patrick's Day Parade known as "Shenanigan's" in Gulfport. This public service project is devoted to providing a wholesome family activity, while raising funds for their various charitable projects. It was awarded the Quota International Award of Excellence for service to the Community. If you are interested in knowing more, please contact us!

On that same date, we will celebrate the 33rd Anniversary of our club! And... there will be a VERY SPECIAL GUEST at this meeting! You won't want to miss it! This would be a great opportunity to invite potential new members! Our special guest will be Frances Stafford. She will have her original scrapbook. We'll also salute many of our members who have been Quotarians for over 10 years!

Best wishes,
Rose Ann Bradley, Immed. Past President Quota Int’l of East Memphis, TN

Thank you so much for including me on this! I really wish I could attend but I would need to know in advance more than this. That isn't your fault, it's mine. Man, I really miss my Quotarian Buddies. Frances, you rock! I love Darlene and we have tried to stay in touch but mainly it's my fault! I have so many close Quotarian friends and have truely missed everyone. I promise to make a meeting if someone lets me know months in advance and we can have a real 'get down' meeting! I would absolutely love that. However, I have a better idea. How about a Quota at the Beach Gathering here on the Emerald Coast?! Can't beat the view and the sand! Lots of great condos that I think I can arrange for a fair price in say, The Fall, the most beautiful time of all! Oh, my goodness, I am getting goose bumps thinking of my fellow Quotarians! Miss you all. Let's try and get you over here for a 'retreat' AKA TREAT!
I know, most of you don't know me but I was a really faithful member before I was forced to move via future ex-husband. Take care and let me know!
Jackie

Best of luck with your 33rd anniversary party! I know it will be wonderful.

Executive Director, Quota International
