GIVE LOCAL YORK TO TAKE PLACE FRIDAY, MAY 6

“It is easier to build strong children than repair broken men.” Frederick Douglas

This year, our Club, has committed to raise $30,000 during Give Local York to partner with

York City Police Commissioner Michael Muldrow in the creation of a Community Engagement

Center in the City of York. The Center will be a safe space for youth and their families and

will provide free access to middle and high school youth to take part in activities they are

interested in. Activities will include: culinary, dance, performing arts, video gaming and

technology and fitness – as well as a safe space with police and police cadets as mentors,

offering conflict resolution, tutoring and career guidance. Youth will also have access to meals,

wellness checks, laundry and therapeutic services.

The Rotary Club of York will receive a naming opportunity for the multi-purpose gym space –

Commissioner Muldrow has coined it the “Rotary Room.” You can make your gift on May 6^th

at www.givelocalyork.org , Rotary Club of York or contact Lynne by May 5th to make a

donation by check.

100% of your gift will be used to equip the Community Engagement Center and help

intervene and build these children strong. Please help us make this visionary

space and program a reality - your gift will change a child's life - giving them the adult

support they need to find their passion and guide them on a productive, positive path.
