Who We Are
Quietly changing our corner of the world.
Have you seen the climbing wall at the Whitehall YMCA? We sponsored that. Are you aware of the Rotary Youth Exchange Program? We sponsor that. Our college-bound kids who've applied for scholarships? We award $30,000 each year.
We pack food boxes for Center of Hope, help make blankets for foster kids, participate in the "Socktober" new socks drive. Each year we give back about $40,000 to our communities along with hours of happy sweat equity.
We are long-term members and brand-new ones. Veterans, business owners, librarians, council members, hourly employees, and retirees. We meet the first and second Wednesday of each month at 5:30 PM at COHatch in Bexley, 2691 E. Main St.
