Program
Five members of the UNH Rotaract Club came to share with us their spring break experience helping in Puerto Rico. Ten members traveled under the auspices of PathStone, a Rochester workforce and community development organization. For the week they worked on four houses, clearing debris and painting. While there they spoke at the local Rotary club. They wanted to thank us for our financial contribution to the $10,000 cost. The trip seems to have made a quite an impression on them.
