Rotary Has Heart for Seniors District Grant
"Thankful" Bags for our seniors
President Danny Braddy has a heart for seniors. He was granted a district grant this year to help our local seniors feel loved, appreciated, and cared for. This began with a pen pal program with our Scott Senior Center attendees. Each quarter, they are sent a letter from the Rotary Club of Thomasville. They are also sent a birthday card on their birthday. But the Rotary Club wanted to do more. On Wednesday Nov 30th we gave them Thankful Bags with an encouraging note to express our appreciation for their willingness to connect with us. We also included a self-addressed stamped envelope to encourage them to write to us. In their bags were toiletry items, socks, and fruit. We watched about 50 individuals smile as they peeked in their bags to find the goodies. Rotary Has Heart for SENIORS!
