Rotary Club members, family and friends enjoyed our annual Philadelphia Phillies Strike Out Hunger game on August 18. The Phillies donated half of the proceeds from our club’s $2,500 in ticket sales to Rotary’s international charitable works, including efforts to eradicate polio. And the Gates Foundation matched those donations 2-1, bringing our club’s total impact to almost $4,000. The Phillies also collected non-perishable food from fans to supply local food banks - making the game a home run for beneficiaries near and far and a fun fellowship night for us. |
