Dictionary Project


For the past four years, our Club has given a free dictionary to every third grade student in Plainfield and in North Plainfield schools. This is one of our primary, community and youth service projects in our two communities.

Members of the Club visit each third grade classroom, usually accompanied by management staff from the school. The members explain about service, engaging the students in a discussion of service opportunities that they currently enjoy. The Rotarians then explain how our club functions, how we work to serve our local and international communities. Each student is then presented with his/her own, personal dictionary.

Over the past four years, we have distributed over 3,500 dictionaries to deserving and grateful students. Our next distribution will take place in October, and we welcome your participation. Contact us by email at Secretary@RotaryPNP.org.
