Soon this Rotary Club will be 100 years old. From the early years, Simcoe Rotary had a "soft spot" for children and teenagers. The Club donated to the Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto and involved itself in Easter Seals. Club members also drove the wee ones and parents to Toronto for treatment and medical appointments.
Today the commitment remains. In the photograph, David Ferris, Chair of the Community Service Committee gives Anna Reu, Director of Services of Big Brothers Big Sisters Grand Erie a cheque for $ 5,000.00. This has been a trying time for service organizations and families coping with Covid19.
