What impact can one donation have on the Paterson Community?
The club is actively seeking sponsorship for food and expenses for the poke tournament. We know that not everyone plays poker and this is a great way for non players to get involved and make a difference.
The Paterson Rotary Foundation will use this money to feed U.S. Veterans and children in need.
