As the start of school approached this month, Austin-Southwest Rotary had not one but three opportunities for service and jumped on it. The Club helped out with traffic control as El Buen Samaritano, an Episcopal mission in Southwest Austin, gave out 500 backpacks and provided Covid vaccinations for the neighborhood. The next opportunity was to assist Constable George Morales at Dove Springs Community Center. The Club donated 400 boxes of crayons and helped hand out much needed school supplies. This successful event provided the East Austin community with 3900 backpacks and school supplies, 3200 hand sanitizers and 12, 000 masks along with 399 Covid vaccinations.
