Thank you so much to the Rotary Club of Wappingers Falls for your incredible support!

School Supplies Delivered!

School Supply Drive items have officially been delivered to Myers Corners, Sheafe Road, and Evans Elementary Schools, where they are now ready for students who may need them throughout the school year.

We’re proud to support local students and help ensure every child has the supplies they need to learn, grow, and succeed!

Pictured below is Dr. Bonk, Superintendent of the Wappingers Central School District; Rotary Club of Wappingers Falls School Supply Drive Chair Todd Bowen; and the Principal of Evans Elementary School.

And we’re not quite finished yet! We have one more partnership and drop-off to go before we officially wrap up this year’s school supply drive.

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, sorted, and supported this effort. Your generosity is making a real difference in the lives of students in our community!

Rotary in action. Service Above Self.
