Our speakers today are Emily Ledesma and Gerardo Martinez from El Buen Samaritano, one of the corporate members in our Club. They will be sharing with us about the 8-week summer program “Intergen”….a program in which older adults and middle school students come together. Many of our Rotary members may be wonderful candidates to be mentors in this program.
