The Rochester Risers Rotary Club, along with Greater Rochester Rotary and The Rotary Club of Rochester joined forces with the Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club to support Crutches4Africa.
The goal - to collect 3000 used mobility devices and ship them to Africa where partners will distribute them to people in need. Each donated device will change a life!
The three Rotary Clubs, together with the generous assistance of local businesses, strategically placed donation barrels around Rochester, allowing people to drop off used crutches, walkers, canes and wheelchairs. Our friends at 125 Live supported the effort by scheduling a donation drop off day at their facility.
We asked the community to support this project, and the response has been amazing!
The Crutches4Africa service project demonstrates the strength of Rotary and our ability to impact lives through service. #LivesImpactedbyRotary
Rotarians believe we share a responsibility to take action to improve our communities. One way club members do this is by lending a hand to local organizations. This week many of our members helped our friends at Channel One by repacking food for our neighbors facing food insecurity.
The Rochester Risers Rotary Club is a dynamic, inclusive and collaborative club of engaged members dedicated to making a lasting impact in our community and the world.
Our connections make powerful things happen - uniting individuals and communities.
We are Rotary. We are People of Action.
With over one million members, we know what people can do when they come together.
Around the World, generations of leaders build new friendships and solve problems - turning great ideas into reality.
