Communications
Charlene Iboshi and Anita Cunningham shared this:

The Rotary Club of Hilo Bay recently donated $576 to the YWCA of Hawaii Island’s Developmental Preschool. The preschool will use the funds, which came from a district grant, to purchase school supplies. COVID-19 reopening regulations require limited sharing of supplies among the students, so parents were asked to provide basic supplies for their children. The items that will be purchased will replace those provided by parents when needed. The preschool currently has 55 children who are attending under the new guidelines.
