Volunteers Needed for Rotary’s Service Nights at Hope Community
RCT's long-time project for support of the Hope Community for homeless families with small children is up and running again after a complete renovation of its facilities from a $2 million appropriation from the Florida Legislature. About 100 residents, half of whom are small children, are served the nightly dinner meal.
Rotary's night for service is the 2nd Tuesday of each month. Volunteers arrive about 4:30pm and are done by 6pm.
