Posted September 22, 2022 Sometimes accidents happen. So one of the Rotary Club of East Montgomery County (RCEMC) projects is to equip local school nurses with extra underwear. In the event of an accident, New Caney and Splendora elementary school nurses now have some necessities for their youngest students. This year, the club donated 600 pairs of underwear to elementary students in the New Caney and Splendora school districts - almost doubling their donation from last year! Rotarians are committed to improving the quality of life for people in their communities and serving the public interest.

At the end of April, the Rotary Club of East Montgomery County (RCEMC) partnered with New Horizons New Caney (NHNC) to expand their horticultural program. NHNC is a sheltered workshop for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. While they train on a variety of tasks, a favorite of the patrons is their horticultural program. RCEMC assisted NHNC in building two additional garden beds for growing herbs. Thriving herb gardens are vital in producing the plants used in making their all-natural tea blends and herbal-infused apple cider vinegars. Patrons work in all phases of the growth of the plants needed to produce their products. These products are then sold to the public at their local shop, as well as community events. The funds generated are then used to continue to provide quality programming and activities for the NHNC patrons.
