Ashley and Cory Lisk from Toys for Youngstown Kids joined us today to receive a $700 check from Boardman Rotary. Toys for Youngstown Kids reaches out to families in need within the Mahoning Valley throughout the year. They assist with emergency cases, such as house fires and emergency foster care placements, as well as holiday gifts, school supplies, clothing and hygiene items. They have been able to assist over 150 families each year since formed, and prides themselves on being able to assist others with their fundraising efforts when they are able.

 

The $700 will help cover the cost of school supplies for students in need.

 

Congratulations to the following members who received perfect attendance for yet another year!
