"The Rotary Club has a long history of helping others during these devastating events," said Tom Hayden, Disaster Committee Chairman with the Rotary Club of Ardmore. "In September 1989, members of the Rotary Club of Ardmore and The Merion Fire Company of Ardmore responded to Hurricane Hugo by sending both financial assistance and an entire truckload of supplies. This same relief effort was then followed by Hurricane Andrew, Hurricane Katrina, and Hurricane Sandy."

If you can't make it to the benefit and still want to help, the Ardmore Rotary Club asks you to send checks made out to Rotary District 5930 and sent to McAllen North Rotary Fund, 501 W. Nolana Ave., McAllen Texas, 78504. The federal tax ID number is 27-3855943.
