Welcome Debbie Heiser and Su Zhou as new members of the Rotary Club of Great Neck!!
It is a pleasure to welcome these 2 amazing professionals to our club. We are sure they will shine and continue helping the community now as rotarians.
We also congratulate Miguel on his second year as President of the club. Great things to keep happening this new Rotary year.
Thanks the all the members for a fantastic dinner!
Saturday May 31 we completed a month of service by delivering all collected items to St Aloysius Church. We did this as part of the EPIC Day of Service, a program that involves a lot of Rotary Clubs that want to give to their communities.
As always, Bertha was there to receive the items and get them ready to distribute to people that need them. Such a wonderful job!!!
Thanks to the volunteers that helped that day and during the month.
On May 8 we had the privilege to host our annual Rotary Youth Merit Awards at the Great Neck Social Center. This award recognizes students from public and private schools in Great Neck who demonstrate an exemplary level of community service and commitment to "Service above self".
Congratulations to all recipients!!
On Monday April 8th, members of our partner club "Rotary Club Cochabamba Tunari" from Bolivia traveled to Mizque, a small town in the valley where 5 young students were the beneficiaries of the Shared Minds Project, an initiative started by 2 high schoolers from Great Neck North, Mia Rios and Katherine Zhao and funded by the Rotary Club of Great Neck.
The initiative aims to give the opportunity to students in need to share ideas by reading common books with the students in our School District. By doing this, the project expects to empower students with new ideas and technology.
Many thanks to our partners in this project: "Rotary Cochabamba Tunari" (https://rotaryclubtunari.com/page/2/); and the "K'anchay Project" (https://kanchay.org.bo/).
Our volunteers continue the work to make the "Shared Minds" project a reality.
We will soon bring more news about this wonderful initiative
Thanks to all the volunteers and friends that made this year's Thanksgiving Project a success!
Thanks to our generous donors that make this possible
And special thanks to Roger Chizever, that once more planned all the logistics to bring this special dinner to the table of the beneficiaries
Summer Community Band 2024
Jacqui Tomlet and the musicians at the Rotary Community Band made an exceptional work this year, bringing great music and joy to our souls during this season concerts.
Dedicating a tree to David Steiner, a member of our club that helped during many years to this project was an exceptional moment too!
We thank our sponsor North Shore Chemist for their support to this activity that bring our community together.
