Sweater weather is almost here! If you’re making room in your closet for fall favorites, consider giving your gently used cooler-weather clothing a second life. 🍂

Donating items when they’re in season or just before means they’re more likely to be needed and put to good use.

Check with secondhand stores in your community or use Beyond the Bin to find textile donation and recycling options near you: https://recyclesmartma.org/beyond-the-bin-search/.

A huge thanks to Recycle Smart MA for making this resource available to us!

🌎💙 Making Connections Through Rotary! 💙🌎

It was a pleasure to welcome Vera L. Kozlik De Godoi Miranda from Rotary District 4730 in Brazil to our New Bedford Rotary Club meeting!

We were so happy to meet Vera, share fellowship, and learn more about Rotary beyond our own community. One of the things that makes Rotary so special is the opportunity to connect with people from around the world who share the same spirit of Service Above Self. 🤝🌎

Thank you, Vera, for joining us! It was wonderful meeting you, and we hope this is the beginning of a lasting Rotary friendship! 💙💛

Rotary truly brings the world together! 🌎✨

Last evening, we had the pleasure of meeting the amazing brother-and-sister team of Hannah Allain and James Feliciano!

Born and raised in New Bedford, Hannah and James founded Flurries Unified Allstars, an incredible nonprofit offering a variety of programming at no cost to participants or their families.

Their organization includes three incredible programs:

✨ Flurries – Unified Cheerleading and Dance
🏀 Flutter – Unified Athletics, including Basketball, Baseball, Soccer, and Flag Football
📚 Ries Readers – A literacy initiative that donates books to elementary school classrooms throughout the region

Please take a moment to check out their programs and learn more about the amazing work they are doing in our community.

Thank you, Hannah and James, for inspiring us with your dedication, generosity, and selflessness! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to hear your story and learn about the difference you are making right here in our community. 💙💛
