Howell Rotary Club has a wonderful opportunity to put Service Above Self into action by inspiring young readers in our community.
We’re looking for Rotarians to serve as guest readers at Southwest Elementary School (915 Gay St., Howell, MI 48843) on Tuesday, March 3, and Wednesday, March 4.
Reading session windows:
9:15–11:00 am
1:00–2:15 pm
Each reading slot is 15 minutes, and volunteers are welcome to sign up for more than one slot if their schedule allows. After you select your availability, you’ll be assigned a classroom, teacher, and grade level.
Howell Rotary will provide the book for you to read—and you’ll leave it behind as a gift to the classroom. Readers should bring a photo ID and sign in at the school upon arrival.
Let’s share our love of reading, spark curiosity, and make a lasting impact—one story at a time!

Host Families Needed for 2026-2027 Exchange Student
Howell Rotary is seeking host families for an exchange student attending Howell Public Schools from August 2026 through June 2027.
Rotary exchange students typically live with two to three different families for three to five months each to experience a variety of home environments. This opportunity is open to all—including individuals, retirees, and families with or without children.
Host Family Responsibilities:
Provide a bed, study space, and meals.
Integrate the student into daily family life, culture, and traditions.
Offer guidance on navigating the school and local community.
Maintain a safe, supportive, and welcoming home environment.
Hosting is about warmth and cultural exchange rather than luxury. By opening your home, you help build international bridges and support the future of Rotary youth programs.
Interested in learning more? Please contact Patti Griffith at pgriffith717@gmail.com or 517-282-0411.
