We were honored to host Carol Ferguson, a Polio Survivor, Rotarian, and the Founder of the PA Polio Network, as our guest speaker. Carol shared her inspiring story with us, highlighting the mission and significance of the Polio Survivors Network.
Every 5th Tuesday of the month, Amigos Rotarians prepare and serve dinner to the women and children at Cathedral Center. This project is in its 5th year of partnership. Chair Frey Faris made 21 pounds of meat and the Jewish Food pantry donated meat, cheese and chips. Friends and family of Rotarians Melissa Ricky and Frey Faris. Dinner was a hit and everyone enjoyed this healthy and super tasty meal.
