The Rotary Club of Waxahachie is making a lasting impact through its sponsorship of two outstanding Interact Clubs at Waxahachie High School and Global High School!
These enthusiastic students are putting Service Above Self into action through an incredible variety of service projects that support their schools, families, and the greater community.
Here are just a few examples of what these students are accomplishing:
Serving Others: Global High School Interact students volunteer monthly with Hidden Miracles, providing three hours of fun and activities for children with special needs while giving their parents a much-needed evening out.
Sharing Around the World: Through Operation Christmas Child, students are preparing 50 shoeboxes filled with gifts for children around the world.
Fighting Hunger: The two clubs joined forces with Rotary for the annual Trick or Treat So Kids Can Eat food drive, collecting an impressive 1,200 food items for local families in need!
Making Homecoming Special: Waxahachie High School Interact continues its annual Mums for Emily tradition, creating homecoming mums for students in life skills classes.
Caring for Their Community: Students have helped install a community rain garden, preserve native habitat, volunteer at local historical sites, and make no-sew blankets for assisted living residents.And that's just the beginning! From community festivals, dog walks, and holiday events to supporting Habitat for Humanity and helping fellow students through an Angel Tree project, these Interactors are always finding new ways to make a difference.
Behind these successful clubs are dedicated Rotary sponsors, teachers, and volunteers who guide and encourage the next generation of community leaders.
A big thank-you to the Rotary Club of Waxahachie for investing in these young leaders and to the students of both Interact Clubs for showing us what happens when a passion for service meets a willingness to take action!
This is Rotary's future in action!
