Discover how seventh graders can blossom into future leaders as Jackie Chapman from the Desert Hot Springs Rotary Club shares the secrets behind the life-changing PRYDE program on this episode of the Rotary Heroes of Hope podcast. Jackie opens up about her journey into Rotary through youth initiatives and sheds light on the Personal Rotary Youth Development Experience—an engaging camp that’s meticulously organized and fully funded by Rotarian donations.

Lastly, we honor the unsung heroes—community volunteers who tirelessly dedicate their time and effort without expecting anything in return. Join us in celebrating individuals like Judy and Jamie, whose selfless contributions make a significant impact on our district. Their commitment embodies true heroism, and we conclude with heartfelt gratitude to all volunteers who infuse hope and make a lasting difference in our communities.
