SERVICE ABOVE SELF
Next Drive-thru Food Drive is Dec. 7
Our next drive-thru food drive is scheduled Saturday (Dec. 7) from 9 am to noon at the Pittsford Sutherland High School bus loop. In addition to the Pittsford Food Cupboard, donations also will support Mothers in Need of Others and the Nazareth University Oak Tree Food Pantry.
In addition, Rotarians and Interact Club members will be accepting new hats, gloves, underwear, socks and other warm clothing for the Veterans Outreach Center to help veterans and their families in need stay warm in the upcoming cold-weather months.
“This is our last drive before the holidays and we want to help make the season a little happier for area veterans and their families,” said Kelly Cline, President of Pittsford Rotary. “We hope the Pittsford community agrees and helps by adding these donations to their food offerings.”
Founded locally in 1973 by returning Vietnam Veterans, today’s Veterans Outreach Center remains anchored in our community and offers a comprehensive portfolio of supportive services designed to meet the needs of veterans and their families.

The Pittsford Food Cupboard plays a crucial role in addressing food insecurity within our community. Donations help ensure that local families have access to essential food items and will promote well-being and stability. See the cupboard’s list of current needs.
Mothers in Need of Others is a short-term emergency assistance program providing basic necessities to families in crisis.
The Oak Tree Pantry serves those with food insecurity in the Nazareth community. The pantry has an ongoing need for granola bars, pasta, peanut butter, soap and other hygiene products.

Statement of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
At Rotary, promoting respect, celebrating diversity, demanding ethical leadership, and working tirelessly to advance peace are central tenets of our work.
We have more work to do to create more just, open and welcoming communities for all people.
We know there are no easy fixes and that challenging conversations and work lie before all of us. Rotary’s strength has long been our ability and commitment to bringing people together. We will tap into that strength now as we stand with those who are working for peace and justice.
Pittsford Rotary will do our part to listen, learn and take action to ensure that we continue to contribute to making positive change.
