🔥 What a day. This is what impact looks like. 🔥
Today, our Rotary family didn’t just meet…
we gave back in a BIG way.
💥 Over $20,000 poured directly into our community.
Not talk. Not ideas. Action.
We’re proud to award 16 Community Grants totaling $20,624 to organizations that are out there every single day making lives better:
👏 The Big Red Barn
👏 CART Fund (Alzheimer’s Research)
👏 EMS Closet
👏 Harvest Hope Food Bank
👏 Harvest Pack
👏 Kind Acts for Humanity
👏 Lifeline Children’s Services
👏 Lonnie B. Nelson Elementary (Rotary Reads)
👏 Midlands Orphan Relief
👏 Palmetto Animal Assisted Life Services
👏 Prisma Health Children’s Hospital
👏 Senior Resources (Meals on Wheels)
👏 Sons of the American Legion
👏 SVHS Interact Club
👏 SV Rotary Urban Garden Project
👏 Transitions
Take a second and look at that list…
That’s food, education, healthcare, children, seniors, veterans, animals—
that’s a community being taken care of from every angle.
And we’re not done…
🎓 On May 7, we’ll award two $2,500 scholarships to deserving SVHS students—because investing in the next generation is non-negotiable.
This is why Rotary matters.
Not for the meetings.
Not for the networking.
👉 For moments like this—when real people get real help.
If you’ve ever wondered what kind of group actually does something…
you’re looking at it.
