Warming Hearts and Houses
Lowell Rotary is fine tuning their approach to giving by selecting causes that are beneficial to specific needs. We were "Heart Beat" sponsors for the Heart Ball 2024 event to benefit children suffering from cardiomyopathy (enlarged heart). We also contributed to the SPC Matthew Pollini Memorial Fund, which is a non-profit dedicated to helping Veterans in need to heat their homes. Both contributions were gratefully acknowledged and put to good use.
