The Rotary's August 18th guest was the Executive Director of PROP Shop, Cindy Eddy. Cindy Eddy talked to the Rotary about the PROP Shop and its characteristics. She mentioned that the PROP Shop is self sufficient. She also talked about the families that the PROP Shop helps with the majority of them being white, but the PROP Shop also serves a fair amount of Hispanic, Russian, and Somalian families. All of these families are in trouble especially now with the ongoing pandemic.
