It Takes a Community - Rotary Comunity Corps lets local volunteers tap into our organization's network
Congratulations to the Parker Rotary Community Corps for recognition in the August 2017 Rotarian Magazine, page 52. Founded in 2010 for a 6 month "trial period" - the Parker RCC is still going strong 7 years later with more than 50 adult members with developmental disabilities. The Parker RCC hold meetings and participate in a variety of service projects including stuffing backpacks for needy schoolchildren, organizing a holiday breakfast at a local senior center, and filling grocery bags for a local food pantry. Enterprising, enthusiastic, and entrepreneurial, the Parker RCC once raised $1,000 in four hours with a car wash. "Everybody knows them all over town," Kam Breitenbach says. "The members have all kinds of opportunities they would not have without Rotary."
