Participate in the Pocketbook Project

Do you have a gently used purse that you no longer use? Do you feel guilty just throwing it away or giving it away to someone else? There may be a solution to your problem and it could truly benefit someone in need at the same time.

Give your gently loved bag to The Rotary Club of Fall River and not only will they donate it to a local domestic violence shelter for someone who could genuinely use it, but they will fill it with toiletries so she won't have to worry about acquiring those items on her own.

The Rotary Club is also collecting the following travel-size items:
