Rotary Club of Mercer Island President Judy Clibborn, left, and Petra Walker (Rotarian organizer for the bell ringing this year), right, stand outside the north end QFC on a recent weekend to raise funds for those in need through The Salvation Army. “There has never been a time when we have felt more motivated, though challenged, to be out there at our two local QFCs and Walgreens,” reads a Rotary press release. Rotarians are gratified to help and they are always moved when people are smiling as they place their contributions in the bucket. Courtesy photo
