A couple of weeks ago, 10 volunteers from our organizations came together at Ozarks Food Harvest for a joint service project and we just received the impact numbers:

📦 650 Senior Boxes packed
💪 18,987 pounds sorted
🍎 15,923 meals provided

What an incredible reminder of what we can accomplish when we come together to serve our community!

Thank you to the Rotary Club of Springfield for partnering with us and to Ozarks Food Harvest for giving us the opportunity to make a difference. We’re proud to serve alongside organizations that are committed to making the Ozarks a better place for everyone.

Last night, service was truly a team effort! 💙💛

Members of the Rotary Club of Springfield joined forces with the Rotaract Club of Springfield at Ozarks Food Harvest to help fight hunger right here in the Ozarks.

Together, our volunteers packed 650 boxes of food - totaling 18,987 pounds and providing an incredible 15,923 meals for families throughout our community.

We're so grateful for the opportunity to serve alongside our fellow Rotarians and Rotaractors and to support the important work Ozarks Food Harvest does every day.

When we come together to serve, a few hours of our time can make a tremendous impact. That's Service Above Self in action.
