Welcome to the Rotary Club of South Whidbey Island!
Left to right are: Jim Rogers, President of RCWW; Gwen Jones, President-Elect of RCWW; Marie Plakos, President-Elect of RCSW; Jonathan Kline, Executive Director of Whidbey Homeless Coalition; Nick Zefferys, President of RCSW; Bruce Enter, Rotary Assistant Governor for Whidbey Island
On January 15 the Rotary Clubs of South Whidbey (RCSW) and Whidbey Westside (RCWW) presented the Whidbey Homeless Coalition two checks totaling over $2000 to assist in caring for our homeless population. In 2020 alone the two clubs donated over $50,000 and thousands of hours of volunteer time in support of our island community.
Since 1982 the Rotary Club of South Whidbey Island has supported the needs of our local community. In response to this year's COVID pandemic our club donated over $10,000 to organizations such as WhidbeyHealth, Good Cheer Food Bank, Whidbey Homeless Coalition, and Atlantis STEAM. In addition, scholarships totaling $21,000 were awarded to seven local high school seniors to assist them in pursuing their college education.
Thanks to the very generous support of our sponsors we raised over $20,000 during our recent Wine Sale, all of which will go right back into our community. Our Rotarians are committed to serving the needs of our neighbors and community throughout the upcoming year and are extremely grateful for your support!
In San Cristobal, Mexico, Maya mothers had to carry or walk their children over two hazardous miles to school every day. Because of the dangerous walk, Maya directors moved their colony closer to the school and asked the Rotary Club of South Whidbey for assistance in building three classrooms for the children. The Rotary Club of South Whidbey Island paid for all of the building material, while the Maya built the three classrooms at no labor cost.
On April 3rd the four Rotary clubs of Whidbey Island donated 8,500 masks and 7,000 pairs of gloves to WhidbeyHealth Medical Center to help in their fight against COVID-19. This effort was initiated by the Rotary Club of South Whidbey and enthusiastically joined by the Rotary clubs of Oak Harbor, Whidbey Westside, and North Whidbey Island Sunrise.
The Rotary Club of South Whidbey donated $4,500 to the Good Cheer Food Bank to help people in need in our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. You can read about Good Cheer and the wonderful work they are doing at the following link: Good Cheer Food Bank
