VOLUNTEERS - A GIFT TO OUR COMMUNITY The Volunteer Appreciation Brunch is an annual event to recognize 100 of the tireless volunteers within 10 organizations throughout Guelph and Wellington County who give so much of themselves and expect so very little in return. In addition, Rotary Club of Guelph South will be making donations to each of the selected organizations as a thank you for everything that they give to those in need.
At the 2017 event, $10,000 was distributed among the 10 volunteer organizations.
