When you attend these meetings, you are supporting several great global initiatives. One of those if providing clean water to areas of the world that don't have this access.

This is a photo of the students at El Tunino school holding glasses of clean water. This is one of nine schools in the Sumpango area of Guatemala at which Rotary is improving water and sanitation facilities through Rotary global grant #25643. El Tunino now has clean water, new hand-washing stations, toilets, septic tanks, and drainage systems.

Speaker: Community Service Project
Date & Time: Apr 30, 2026, 5:30 PM
Topic: Heart-To-Heart International

Each year, our dedicated club members select an organization for which to perform community service projects and for the past 15 years, one of the organizations we have chosen to support is the Heart-To-Heart organization with headquarters located in Lenexa.

Join us for this after-hours service project for about an hour during which we pack hygiene kits with basic, but needed personal cleaning supplies including wash cloths, soap bars, shaving razors, fingernail clippers, toothpaste and toothbrushes.

After the event, we gather for dinner at a local favorite restaurant of the club in Olathe called The Rub for a hearty midwestern BBQ dinner together. This year is sure to be super fun as we support our neighbors around the world through this partnership with the Heart-To-Heart organization. Be sure to sign up to serve during a club meeting or email an officer to learn more about this family-friendly event today. See you there!
