How does a U.S. Rotary Club get involved and sponsor a school?
It’s easy. A Rotary Club selects a local school of its preference. Then, a MSSP staff member goes with a Club representative to discuss the Program with the school’s principal and teachers. Most immediately grasp the value of the Program. The first-year plan usually includes the planting, expansion or renewal of a native butterfly garden. Just as important as a Club help in covering the garden costs is their volunteering to prepare the garden site for planting by the students. This collaboration leads to a close relationship with the school and PTA.
