Small Acts Project: Birthday Party Kits for Food Pantry
We completed our first Rotary Small Act on Saturday, April 18! Ten Rotarians gathered to assemble 25 birthday kits to Stone Soup Kitchen in Ayer.
"Thank you again for the amazing gifts you brought for us to hand out at the pantry. Everyone loves to get one of these birthday tins when they've got a celebration to plan.
"We really appreciate the wonderful relationship that we've had with the Ayer Rotary for all these years. You guys are always ready to support our community, and we are grateful for you! From the very beginning of Stone Soup Kitchen, you've been there for us. "
Health + peace ~

The Dictionary Project:
How to Spell Smile!
Every year, we give a dictionary to every third-grade student in our area's elementary schools. In this online-age, printed dictionaries are a surprise big hit with the students! Supporting literacy is just one way our Rotary Club gives back to the community with the support of our generous supporters.

Add text hereAt October's annual Senior Citizen Chicken BBQ, the cowboy charcoal burned hot and the chickens were done by 11:30. Inside, volunteers packaged the meals for pick up. Out front, Rotarians greeted about 200 seniors as they arrived to pick up the meals. Congrats to all the organizers and thanks to all the volunteers! A special thanks to Operator 1 Richie Rice for lending his professional chef experience to properly cooking the chickens. And to Clear Path for Veterans New England for sending a platoon of volunteers ready and able to serve.
