HYBRID MEETING - Country Club of York & Virtual Meeting on zoom.
PROGRAM: Fred Walker and Anthony Moore are principals in Four Squares Development, founded a year ago to address the significant need for improving the socioeconomic conditions of York City’s historically disadvantaged neighborhoods using a holistic revitalization approach. They have engaged local businesses, non-profit organizations and academic institutions to collaboratively engage in for-profit residential development that promotes home-ownership and local employment.

They most recently have formed Four Squares Construction and announced a relationship with Lowe’s to further their community partnership.

Who demonstrates Service Above Self in their community involvement, leadership, and commitment to York?
Please register your guests with the OFFICE by Tuesday, 11/16. 11/17 is the last club meeting for November. It takes EACH ONE of us to help our Club grow and thrive!

The farmhouse was the base of their operations from which they have served the York community for the past 17 years. Horn Farm Executive Director and Rotary Club of York member, Alexis Campbell, shared that a key to their recovery from this disaster is significant financial support.
