Tracy Eubanks of Metrocrest Social Services has notified our Club of a pressing need for food, money, and supplies due to victims of Hurricane Harvey. Many victims of the Hurricane are now in our area and in need of various supplies. While Metrocrest Social Services primary focus is providing food, they also need clothes vouchers at their Retail store and other services based upon need. You can help by donating any of the items listed below. Donations can be delivered to our Carrollton/Farmers Rotary Club at our Thursday meetings at noon at Brookhaven Country Club, or to their office at 13801 Hutton Drive, Suite 150, in Carrollton. If you prefer to donate money, you can do so by going to their website at www.metrocrestservices.org and choose "Pantry" as the designation. A list of items they need is as follows:
