Jacob McKeever was formally inducted to the Pima Rotary Club by Club President, Ron DeVries, at the Friday meeting on August 7th. He will be a very active and valued member of our club. Welcome Jacob!!

On Saturday, August 1st, the Pima Rotary Club spent the day at Old Pueblo Children’s Academy.   Through this effort,  we aided a brand new school in installing baseboards in the entire school.  Old Pueblo Children’s Academy is a charter school that works with special needs children grades K-8.  Please visit www.oldpuebloacademy.org for more information on this school.  The Old Pueblo Children’s Academy website was also donated by one of our members.

The Pima Rotary Club is part of Rotary International, the largest humanitarian organization in the world.  The fourth weekend of each month concept was created so that a service project where ‘real work’ is done rather than just writing a check. Through efforts such as these and others, Rotarians aspire to build goodwill and the friendship of the community.   The club also supports projects such as world polio eradication, providing dictionaries to third grade students locally as well as supporting students in Kampala, Uganda.  Meetings are held the first three Fridays of the month at Chad’s Steakhouse at Swan/Ft. Lowell at 11:15 am.  Visit www.pimarotary.org for more information.    Look below for some pictures of us in action!
