# 179 Jones Senior High School Interact Club


Polio Chair Sydney and President 





This is the first Interact club that I have visited.  Jones Senior High School Interact in Trenton, NC, was chartered in October 2010, less than 200 days ago. They have already been very active in supporting Habitat for Humanity, Polio Plus, Stop Hunger Now and other activities.  The club will be hosting a Purple Pinkie Fundraiser all next week during lunch time; I anticipate most of the students in the school will be bearing purple nails next week.  It is important to note that this rural school is in a very impoverished area and many families are in need, in fact many of the students in the school are in need of assistance.  So to see students giving to others when they themselves are in need is truly inspiring.  This generation is one that has the spirit of volunteerism and a desire to provide community service.  They are the future of Rotary and well on their way to being fabulous Rotarians.

I am honored to make a donation of $100 for this club.
