So proud of our Rose's Youth Philanthropist students. The Gala for Good was amazing!!🤩

If you are concerned that teens today are unmotivated or selfish, that is not our experience. Last night we joined Meals on Wheels of Chemung County to present at Rose’s Youth Philanthropy Gala for Good. The students from Corning, Elmira, Horseheads, Elmira Heights and Notre Dame delivered a fun evening to help our seniors. This fundraiser was planned and executed 100% by the students and it was flawless. Thank you for supporting our programs!
