Using these funds, grants providing money; skills; and resources such as water, food, medicine, and clothing will be given to Rotary Clubs in Ukraine, Belarus, Romania, the Republic of Moldova, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Belarus, and Slovakia to aid in the Ukraine crisis. 

Members of the Interact Club  hope to see you all at Overlook Park this coming Saturday and thank you for your support.
