FREsh FOR YOU: Free Produce Market

Rotary Club of Thomasville made a BIG IMPACT on our community for another month in a row at our “FRESH FOR YOU - Free Produce Market” in partnership with Second Harvest of South Georgia and the Marguerite Neel Williams Boys & Girls Clubs.

Due to Rotary having 2 events on the same day, a special shoutout from Hands on Thomas County was given for our tremendous efforts in the community that weekend…Thank you to all the volunteers for their hard work! To view the full post and photos, click HERE.

HOTC DAY 2023

Rotary's commitment to helping Hands on Thomas County "Doing Good Since 2003" continues strong, and we couldn't be prouder with our 20th year volunteering for this wonderful cause. Rotarians John Comita Jr., Copper Allen Comita, and John Kepler joined forces to make a difference at the Vashti Center for Children and Families this past month.  Thank you John, John, and Copper for all your hard work! To view the full post and photos, click HERE.
