Centerville Rotarians Deliver Food and Hope

assortment of fresh and frozen food items this past Saturday morning. Members

of the club sorted, bagged and delivered the food boxes to needy families

selected by the Trinity UMC Food Pantry.

members of the club for their generous donation of funds (over $1,600) for the

food baskets and applauded Rotarians for participating in a major project of

the club for the past eight years. “Its an opportunity to help people, to give

encouragement and extend a little grace,” said club member and Assistant

District Governor Joy Hurst. She added “it’s a good opportunity for our

Rotarians to have hands-on interactions with members of our community who are

in need. The families are so grateful to receive the food baskets.” This is a

year round need, but this is what we can do now and we hope our actions will

inspire others to participate.” Rotarians are improving the lives in

communities around the world every day through thousands of service projects.

The Rotary Club of Centerville is also active in promoting literacy through a

weekly book donation program, providing GED scholarships and an annual

appreciation program for Adult Literacy Volunteers.
