Rotarians locally and around the world have been working to help Ukrainian refugees. "As the war in Ukraine causes millions to flee their homeland, Rotary International has taken swift action to mobilize the power of its worldwide network of clubs to provide food, supplies and funding for refugee relief. Working through Rotary Clubs in Eastern Europe, Rotary is providing on-the-ground assistance to refugee families that have crossed the border into Poland, Slovakia and Romania. To date more than $7million has been collected by clubs around the world," Frank Hopkins, Chariho Rotary Secretary.
Shoutout to the wonderful Nancy Burns Fusaro for sharing our efforts in the Westerly Sun Front Porch News.
