DRRC
Continues to Make a Difference…
The DRRC continues to provide community support for many charitable and
worthy causes. At each meeting or DRRC sponsored event, the DRRC selects a
charity and pledges funds to help the selected organization. In addition, we
encourage our members and guests to bring needed items or contribute
privately. We truly feel that we are all better served when we can reach out
and help those that appreciate and need it most in troubled times.
In addition, the DRRC has focused on helping children during the holiday
season. At our annual holiday party in early December, our members and
guests have given generously and provided unwrapped gifts and/or gift cards.
For the last 15 years, the DRRC has proudly hosted an annual holiday party
for children who may otherwise not have the opportunity to celebrate. The
holiday party provided plain white sweat shirts and coloring tools so the
children could creatively design their own message; pizza, salad, drinks,
cookies and cake; a surprise visitor from the North Pole; entertainment from
a Magician and to conclude the party, each child received a stocking filled
with goodies.
The DRRC is proud to give back to the many charities listed and will
continue to provide support in our community for many years to come.
