Pamela Gunter-Smith began serving as president of York College of Pennsylvania on July 1, 2013. Dr. Gunter-Smith came to York College with a vision for creating a culture of increased community connectivity, and has made great strides towards this effort. Under her leadership, the College has established the Center for Community Engagement, created a multi-disciplinary partnership with YCIDA to assist in bringing back the Yorktowne Hotel, increased the College’s scholars programs designed to engage students in York as part of their York College learning experience.  Dr. Gunter-Smith will offer a recap of the steps she and her administration have taken to effectively navigate the unprecedented COVID 19 crisis, all the while ensuring that a high level of teaching and student learning continued to flourish at the College. She will also offer an overview of the course she is charting for the fall semester and beyond as York County emerges from a state mandated shelter-in-place order.

MESSAGE FROM PAST PRESIDENT JOSH GEORGE
As we wrapped up the 2019/2020 Rotary year, our club was able to support several local COVID relief efforts.  The goal of these donations was threefold: support children in our community, provide funding to organizations working to reduce hunger, and to use our club's collective resources to help those in need.  After deliberation, the club's Board of Directors voted to approve a total donation amount of $ 30,000.  These funds were allocated to the York County Food Bank ($10,000), the York County YMCA Youth Food Program ($5,000), York Fresh Food Farms ($5,000), York County Community Foundation/United Way COVID Relief Fund ($5,000), and York Day Nursery ($5,000).  Thanks to all of our club members for remaining
committed to our club particularly in light of the COVID pandemic and helping us to support these fine organizations.
