The Hopkinsville Rotary Foundation awarded its sixth grant during the 75th Annual Hopkinsville Rotary Auction to the The Salvation Army Hopkinsville, KY! By attending the Salvation Army’s Summer Music Camp students are provided with opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive outside of the traditional classroom setting. This helps minimize summer learning loss. This is a program that nurtures both creativity and character by helping students grow in meaningful ways that last far beyond the summer! 🎶
The Hopkinsville Rotary Foundation awarded its fifth grant during the 75th Annual Hopkinsville Rotary Auction to the West Kentucky FCA - Area 3!

The camps offer a supportive environment where young athletes can grow and develop the skills necessary to lead with confidence and conviction through FCA’s core values: teamwork, excellence, integrity and serving. By supporting West Kentucky FCA, we’re investing in the hearts and minds of the next generation, both on and off the field! 👏
