Last month, a Brookline educator approached one of our members with a rquest for help. Several local students going to Brookline summer day camp were in need of clothing assistance. In true Rotary fashion, our Rotarian, Kim Kushner, kicked into high gear and worked with the board and club members to fulfill this community need. On short notice, we were able to provide 4 outfits, a bathing suit, hat, beachtowel and tote bag for 21 students! Our contact sent a lovely thank you informing us that the students started wearing their new outfits immediately with giant smiles on their faces and positive responses like: "This one is my favorite!" She was so excited! and “ I never had a beach towel before!”Thanks to all our members who donated to this impactful project.
A little known fact, Rotary International holds one of two non-voting seats in the United Nations and since our beginning we have aligned ourselves with the mission of the UN. One of Rotary's eight areas of focus has always been conflict resolution.
