Note this Change:  STRIVE begins the 2nd week of NOVEMBER – 8th, 9th and 10th

STRIVE is a Rochester Rotary Clubs sponsored program for seniors who have faced some academic challenges but want to make the most of their last year of high school.  Our number one goal is to help them graduate from high school and see the opportunities out there for post-secondary education through our mentoring. 

We still need 4 more mentors for this program with ten (10) at each school.
