Sustaining Projects

Our club supports this annual Christmas community service outreach to needy families both financially and with volunteers. WE work with the local police department, fire department, and other charitable organizations to collect donations of toys and food products from the community. The toys are then made available to families in need free of charge so that they can have presents as well as a family meal over the holiday season.

Every year the Andover Rotary Club provides scholarships to select USD 385 and USD 402 Juniors to attend the RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) camp held each summer at Southwestern College [ http://www.sckans.edu/undergraduate/leadership/rotary-camp/ ]. This camp is an opportunity for these students to learn teamwork and leadership skills over the summer so that upon their return to school as seniors they can have a meaningful and positive impact at the school and in the community.
