We received a wonderful update from Isaac Arulappan about how our annual contribution has helped rebuild the DKSHA Cornerstone Orphanage that we support. Breckenridge Mountain Rotary contributes financially to this orphanage as our primary International Project. Isaac also came to speak to our club this year, and he has worked with many other Rotary clubs across the US, Canada, and worldwide. Read below for more details and photos!
