Hi Fellow Rotarians, I know its short notice, but if you can help volunteer this afternoon/evening, it would support some good folks. Please read carefully below!
WILEY SCHOOL APT FIRE CAR WASH! Volunteer needed!
Good afternoon,
On March 28, 2026, there was a devastating fire at an apartment
complex in Salisbury. That fire left more than sixty residents of the
Wiley School Apartments displaced, and many of them lost not only their homes, but all of their possessions.
Since that day, local agencies like the Rowan County United Way,
American Red Cross, and Rowan Helping Ministries, have worked to
find permanent housing for those displaced residents. While these
efforts have resulted in residents having a “roof over their heads,” there is still a great need for those who lost so much.
Volunteers are needed today May 8th, 2026, from 330pm-7pm to help with the car wash.
Location will be: J.F. Hurley YMCA-828 Jake Alexander Blvd.
If you can help or know a group that can please have them reach out to:
