Ishpeming Rotary Club Supports Future Leaders through Generous Donation to Westwood High School Students

The Ishpeming Rotary Club has made a generous donation of $500 to support students from Westwood High School as they prepare for the BPA National Leadership Conference in Chicago in May. The donation will help offset costs for students participating in the conference.

Three Westwood juniors, Clara Kruger, Isabella Grochowski, and Kaya Etelamaki, met with members of the Rotary Club to receive the check. They expressed their gratitude for the support from local businesses in Ishpeming.

Etelamaki remarked, “It feels very nice that businesses are helping us and helping their community and their schools near them.” Grochowski added, “It makes me feel like I can do it. And they’re there for me if I can’t do it so it’s just amazing.” Kruger shared, “I feel very supported. I feel more like a part of our community.”

This generous contribution from the Ishpeming Rotary Club demonstrates the community’s commitment to investing in the future leaders of tomorrow. Those interested in supporting the Westwood Business Professionals of America students are encouraged to reach out to Westwood High School.
