CLUB HAPPENINGS
Friends of Henderson Libraries turned the Paseo Verde Library into a winter wonderland filled with beautifully decorated trees for their annual Library Tree Lane Gala fundraiser. The Rotary Club of Green Valley sponsored a Nutcracker Ballet themed tree for the event. The tree will be donated to the USO Nellis Air Base
We had our annual Holiday Program at Green Valley High School on Thursday, December 6th. This is one of the club's favorite events of the year because these students are so talented!
As a bonus, we were able to support our Student of the Month in raising money to help homeless high schoolers through the Gator Gift Program. He is selling socks through the We Help Two sock campaign – one pair for you to keep and one pair to donate. RCGV members passed the hat and collected $232 toward this effort. If you wish to donate, visit www.wehelptwo.com
We are proud to support the students and faculty at Green Valley High School, and thank them for getting us all in the holiday spirit!! If you would like to learn more about Green Valley High School and their music programs, please go to greenvalleyhs.org/
