MARCH STUDENTS OF THE MONTH

Each month we acknowledge an outstanding junior student from the Technical HS, Charter School and AvonGrove HS. Due to Covid19 and the impact on our schools and community, we have had to put this program on hold for the past months, but we are so happy to be able to begin to recognize young people in our community for whom SERVICE is an important part of their life as well as their academic studies.

Our club is proud to recognize the STUDENT OF THE MONTH for March -

from the TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL -

RUBYT LUNA-HERNANDEZ - Rubyt is studying to be a Vet Assistant and hopes to continue toward a full Veterinarian in the future. She is active in her school service projects such as the Christmas Shopping Day and Fun Run Fund Raisers.

When you see her, give her a big thumbs up!

From the AVONGROVE CHARTER SCHOOL meet -

JACKSON BARNO - Jackson's focus on community service comes from his Leadership role in the Boy Scouts and Junior National Guard. He has served as a camp councilor, mentor and all around " big brother" to other scouts in his pack. He loves hiking and being outdoors. Offer him a hearty congratulations!

Each student receives a certificate and a gift card.

The Bridge donation

On Tuesday, August 11, 2020, our club with support of Rotary District 7450, presented a $1000 check to The Bridge Food and Clothing Cupboard to help provide additional food relief to residents in our area affected by COVID 19. For the last several years, the West Grove-Avondale Rotary Club has supported The Bridge by providing and distributing toiletries and diapers as part of their weekly Tuesday evening food, clothing and household goods distribution. Located in West Grove, Pennsylvania, the Bridge is part of the ministry of the Avon Grove Church of the Nazarene and through the combined efforts of area churches, community organizations and local businesses is able to provide assistance to thirty to fifty families each week.

2020 FLAGS FOR HEROES

Several years ago, as we were putting up flags, a woman pulled over and said she just had to stop because she knew that when there were this many flags, that they were representing real people, real heroes.

With the COVID-19 pandemic, we need to support our heroes more than ever. See the video and find out more ...
