On November 20, 2006 Feasterville Rotary members helped spread
the Rotary spirit by helping kick off its local Ferderbar Elementary
School’s EarlyAct Club!
The mission of EarlyAct is to
promote goodwill, understanding and peace through the active
participation of its student members so that with committed
citizenship and effective leadership they may improve the
quality of life of their school, local and global communities.
EarlyAct closely follows the principles, procedures and vision
of Rotary International.
Ferderbar teachers Patty Compton
and Susan Walters and school counselor, Ms. Sporny, learned
about the New Jersey District 7510 EarlyAct program and wanted
to start something similar for their students. With the help
of the New Jersey EarlyAct director, their great website (www.earlyact.com)
and the Feasterville Rotary club, Ferderbar EarlyAct leaders
were sworn in on November 20th.
The students now meet several
times per month to create and facilitate their own charitable
service project ideas and learn how to make things happen
under a club organization! They have local, community and
international committees, a president, secretary, etc…
and make decisions as a group. They already have a Holiday
Elf Fund Project and Valentine Day Card Project under their
belts.
So many helping ideas and so
much energy just oozes out of these kids! And students already
are coming to class talking about the RI signs they see on
the highways. Our future Rotary members!!
