Rotary gives

The Rotary Club of Memorial-Spring Branch recently held its 2018 “Day of Giving” luncheon at the Houston Racquet Club. The Rotary Club awarded 10 college scholarships to graduating high school seniors from Spring Branch ISD. The club also provided thousands of dollars of assistance to families impacted by Hurricane Harvey. The efforts were made possible through a partnership with Spring Branch Family Development Center and the Rotary Club of Houston Energy Corridor. The club also awarded a grant to the Boy Scouts of America to help pay for summer camps for kids in need.
