Rotary Club of Kirksville - Cynthia and Bill Kelly;
Heart to Heart International
Program: The Reverse Raffle
Bill and Cynthia told us that Heart to Heart International began in 1992 as a one-time aid event, and Rotary has been a part of the organization from the very beginning. The initial response was so overwhelmingly supportive that the group decided to organize as an ongoing organization and has responded to disasters in 130 countries. The largest part of their work is delivering medical supplies and pharmaceuticals.  See the flyer below for more details on Heart to Heart International.
