Ten years ago, Barbara Harris spoke to our Rotary about her desire to become a nurse. Her mother and sister both had not graduated from high school. She could not afford UMSL so Rotary provided her with a scholarship to Forest Park Community College. When she finished there, she went to Prairie View College in Texas and lived with her aunt. She returned to UMSL two years ago and has now graduated! She is a Conscious Choice girl and the Rotarians helped her become a successful graduate and now a nurse!  Rotary is helping young people succeed!

 

 

 

Big news recently for the Clayton Ladue Rotary Club.  We were recognized as a major sponsor of World Food Day and our own Kirk Stange and his wife Paola Arzu Stange were the chairs of the Old Newsboys Day fundraiser.  We’ve also moved back to virtual meetings and are sharing the Rotary brand with these face masks we will wear while serving our community.  Happy Thanksgiving all!

The charitable giving committee recently approved a $1,000 contribution to the St. Louis Community Foundation's Gateway Resilience Fund in addition to other worthy organizations.
