💙💛 A LITTLE PUZZLE, A LOT OF HEART! 🧩📚

Amityville Rotarians were delighted to donate and deliver a wonderful assortment of crossword and puzzle books, along with a 100 Million Word crossword dictionary, to the residents of The Bristol in Massapequa! ❤️

We hope these books bring hours of enjoyment, mental stimulation, and plenty of smiles to the residents who receive them. Sometimes, the simplest gifts can make the biggest difference!

Cozy Warmth for “World of Pink”

💗🧶 A new service project is wrapping our community in comfort and care!

The Amityville Rotary Club is proud to launch our newest hands-on service project—creating cozy, chunky lap blankets for breast cancer patients through World of Pink.

Our Rotarians recently gathered to learn the art of hand-knitting and are already well on our way to making 10+ beautiful blankets that will provide warmth, comfort, and a reminder that no one is fighting alone.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful instructors for sharing their time and talents, and a warm Rotary welcome to a fellow Lindenhurst Rotarian, who has joined us and will be bringing this meaningful project back to her own club!

Together, we’re stitching kindness, hope, and compassion—one blanket at a time. 💕 #ServiceAboveSelf #AmityvilleRotary #WorldOfPink #CommunityCares #RotaryInAction
