Building Hope: A Spring Break to Remember
On March 9th, a group of St. Mary's College students embarked on a journey that would change their spring break and make a tangible difference in the lives of a needy family. The annual college challenge for Habitat for Humanity took them to the heart of Meriwether County, where they dedicated their time and energy to building a home from the ground up.
On Tuesday, August 26, the Meriwether County Rotary Club donated $500 to the DORCAS Food Ministry at the First Baptist Church of Warm Springs.
To raise money for the DORCAS Food Ministry program, the Rotary Club members purchase a ticket for one dollar to win a prize. The money collected from the ticket donation is given to the DORCAS Ministry fund for the food bank.
The Meriwether County Rotary Club Foundation hosted an enthusiastic Football Kickoff Social on Thursday, August 14, at the picturesque Fitzgerald Farms. Members and guests gathered in a warm atmosphere to enjoy delightful fellowship, celebrate the excitement of the upcoming football season, and actively support the impactful initiatives of the Rotary Foundation. The event provided an opportunity to connect with one another while fostering community spirit and discussing the positive changes the Foundation aims to achieve.
