The local high school project up-start is one of our Rotary Club’s signature projects. The local high school has over 100 students at any given time designated as Project UP-Start – which is a government program for students with unstable housing. Homelessness can range from living in a shelter to living on a friend’s couch to living in a car. The volume of students in this position at this one high school is overwhelming. The Club supports this cause in various ways throughout the year.  

 

For example, the school has turned an entire classroom into a pantry, which holds food, toiletries, clothing items, school supplies, and more. Our club delivers pantry food every two weeks throughout the school year and provides school uniforms and toiletries as needed. 

 

Please visit our Club’s Amazon wish list to support the student needs. Should one prefer, we also collect monetary donations via GoFundMe or check donations made out to: The Perrine-Cutler Ridge Rotary Foundation. Reach out to us today if you’d like to get involved!  You may contact Christina Ludovici at Christina@ludoprop.com.
