The Davidsonville Ruritan Club is known for
its decades of service to the community. The impact of its latest initiative
will be felt for generations.
Hundreds of parents who attended Davidsonville
Elementary School’s Back To School event tonight learned at the outset that the
Ruritan Club is donating $50,000 to the school to be used for technology
purchases.
“During the past year the Davidsonville Ruritan Foundation Inc. has provided 22
organizations with financial support in Davidsonville and the surrounding
communities,” said Bob Bold, president of both the club and the foundation. “We
also continue to supply athletic fields free of charge for use by the
Davidsonville Athletic Association. Although we no longer have a building, we
are committed to the well-being of needy organizations lacking financial
support.”
The
Davidsonville Ruritan Club was established in 1955 primarily by local farmers.
From the outset its efforts have been aimed at raising the quality of life in
the community. The club recently sold a building it had owned, and is using
proceeds from that sale for its donation to the school.
