Kevin Pitts, DG District 5495 delivered the Friendship Trophy to the Rotary Club of the Verde Valley on September 14, 2023. The Rotary Club of the Verde Valley, President Amanda Arnold, delivered the traveling "friendship" trophy to the Rotary Club of Sedona Village on October 12, 2023 at a joint club service project at Manzanita Outreach in Cottonwood. The The Rotary Club of Sedona was also represented in this joint club service project. Rotarians lined cartons with plastic bags for their weekly food distribution and labeled donation request cards for about 2 hours.
There are four Rotary Clubs in the Verde Valley. They join forces in service projects and youth projects, such as sponsoring Interact Clubs at local high schools and junior high and often help each other raise funds for the services they support.
Tristan Trezise traveled to Kenya with the Rotary International Crutches for Africa team to deliver mobility devices to the disabled and school supplies to under-privileged schools. He was sponsored by the Rotary Club of the Verde Valley and the Mingus HS Interact Club.
VERDE VALLEY IMAGINATION LIBRARY
All children in the Verde Valley between birth and 5 years are eligible for a FREE age-appropriate book each month. The Board of the VVIL is made up of members of our local Rotary Clubs, as well as local community members. We are proud to support this organization both with monetary gifts and service. This year we gave $12,000 in collaboration with all four Rotary Clubs in the Verde Valley and The Rotary District 5495 Matching Grant.
Let's share in the excitement!
