Greece Rotary Wraps Up our Food Drive with Donation
In August, the Greece Rotary Club wrapped up its food drive for Greece Ecumenical Food Shelf and Clothing Closet. We donated 90 pounds - we started in mid-July and finished
up the last week of August collecting primarily cereal, canned fruit, and boxed pasta. In addition, past opportunities to serve Rohrbach's at Red Wings games allowed the Club to donate $2,000 to the Greece Ecumenical food shelf. The food shelf was extraordinarily appreciative and able to serve more people in August than they have ever served in one month in the past. This indicates the need in our community and the power Rotarians have to help!

Greece Rotary has supported Homesteads for Hope for many years. This program supports people of all abilities in our community and teaches them agricultural and life skills. Our Rotary Club is proud to help fund programs and capital projects on this property. Our most recent project was funding flower beds installed on asphalt to be accessible for all abilities. Bonus - we got to volunteer time to build the beds, too! Homesteads for Hope is growing, and hosting an event on October 7th to support the Forever Homestead.
