scanSCAN, South Coast Angel Network, provides a variety of investment opportunities with potential for high rates of return to its members. It supports entrepreneurs in growing their businesses, with preference for local and Texas based companies. SCAN is supported by TAMU-CC Innovation Center. Through the angel network and affiliation with ATAN, we see unique investment opportunities that otherwise would not be see. All members make their own decisions and the diversity of member backgrounds greatly aids the due diligence.

What does it mean to truly matter—and how can that sense of mattering lead us to a more purposeful life?At Thursday’s meeting, Dr. Joshua Watson, Dean and Regents Professor at Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi, presented “Living with Purpose Through Mattering.”Dr. Watson explained that mattering begins with the belief that we are valued by others and that we add value to the world. Through attention, appreciation, inclusion, and connection, we help people recognize their own significance and the impact they can have.He also connected this message directly to Rotary. Our club gives members a place where they know they matter to one another—and where their time, talents, and service matter to the community. The relationships we build within our club create a sense of belonging and purpose, while the work we do together turns that purpose into meaningful action.Dr. Watson challenged us to consider who matters to us, why they matter, and what they may need from us right now. Sometimes the greatest impact begins with a small action: making a phone call, encouraging a student, checking on a neighbor, inviting someone into the conversation, or simply saying, “You matter to me.”His message was a powerful reminder of why Rotary is needed in our community:Mattering creates meaning.Meaning inspires action.Action gives us purposeRotary is People In Action with Purpose!Thank you, Dr. Watson, for reminding us that when people feel valued, they are empowered to help others feel valued—and that small actions, multiplied through service, can create a lasting impact. #RotaryClubOfCorpusChristi #ServiceAboveSelf #Mattering #Purpose #CommunityImpact #CorpusChristi ...
