Hurricane Irma: Rotary club from New Jersey lends muscle in Immokalee
The Rotary Club of Mullica Hill, New Jersey, had no ties to Immokalee until Hurricane Irma pummeled the migrant farmworkers’ community.
The New Jersey group worked alongside the Rotary Club of Immokalee, staff members of The Blue Zones Project of Southwest Florida, and local businesses to help place blue tarps on damaged roofs in Immokalee and make some basic repairs so families could get by.
