Announcing the new DSP!

All year our club has been focusing on "Going Green." Why? Not because it's the latest trend or simply because it's a good thing to do (although those are good reasons too) but because it was the Pennsylvania District Service Project. Each year the district picks a different cause to center around.

Recently the 2009-2010 project was selected, thanks to everyone who voted on pacircle.org. Here's a summary of the new focus, courtesy of the district website.

Helping the Homeless puts an emphasis on the problem of homelessness in our communities. This is becoming increasingly more important as the economic times continue to prove difficult for many people. There are also tons of projects that can be done to work towards this DSP including: assisting at homeless shelters and soup kitchens, holding supply drives, and doing adopt-a-family activities around the holidays.

We'll be getting lots more information about Helping the Homeless at District Convention, so stay tuned!
