RRAH Meeting Recap
After Hours Learns about GRSP and Rotary Foundation
After Hours had a great meeting last week! John Carruth and Leslie Bassett spoke about the Rotary Foundation. It was great to learn what the foundation does and how After Hours can get involved. Then, Georgia Rotary Student Program participant Panashe Sivindani spoke about her experience in GRSP. It was very interesting and insightful to learn about the program, and Zimbabwe!
Lucky's For a Cause!
