The Rotary members are striving to replace funds usually raised through their annual Spaghetti Dinner in order to continue to provide a significant number of winter coats for area children in need. A large number of the recipients attend Tawanka, Ferderbar and Poquessing schools.

Throughout the last decade, the Feasterville Rotary has donated more than 1,000 coats to area students. Everyone who makes a donation will have a chance to win a gift card to a local retail establishment. Make checks payable to the Rotary Club of Feasterville and mail to: 4340 Chester Ave., Oakford, PA 19053. For additional information, contact Linda Pupkiewicz at 215-322-0170 or email feastervillerotary@gmail.com.
