Hands-On Service Opportunities
Rotary is a service organization. Our club strives to help people in Springfield and Greene County through our Community Grants and Hands-On Service Projects. We have several nonprofit groups represented by our members, and we’re giving them the chance to publicize opportunities for Hands-on Service. We’ll post those opportunities here, along with their contact information, for anyone who is looking for a way to serve others.
Here are projects we have scheduled for this spring:
