Marrias' Trip to India

Celebration for Vashti Graduates

Six of Vashti's residential students are graduating from high school this week. According to Rotarian David Sofferin, executive director of Vashti, having six graduates from a program for 20 students is outstanding and comparable to larger residential homes in the state. 

Vashti will host a graduation celebration for these students on Thursday, May 22 at 4 p.m. in the dining hall. Rotary will present each student with a gift and a card. The cards will be available for you to sign at Thursday's meeting. Please attend if you can. We may be the only "family" some of the students have at the event.
