Rotary Club members arrived early for their weekly meeting and filled one-hundred backpacks with notebooks,binders, glue sticks, pens, pencils, rulers, folders, markers and more. The backpacks were presented to Greater Fall River non-profit organizations who will distribute the bags to children under their care. Representatives from Family Service, Association Big Friends/Little Friends and Child and Family Services Inc., United Neighbors of Fall River, The Women's Center L.O.F.T. Program, and Bristol Elder Services accepted backpacks.
